Game Pass is often referred to as a sort of Netflix-type offering for video games that is helping to usher in the newest era of digital gaming, one that continues to push the industry away from physical copies of games. It was launched in June 2017.

The Kingdom Hearts additions cover the story before 2019’s Kingdom Hearts 3 and will be available for console play. No Man’s Sky now features crossplay and is playable on PC.

Thronebreaker is a single-player RPG set in the world of The Witcher. It’s being released on consoles.

In the Bard’s Tale, being released for both the console and PC, the player controls a selfish rogue who explores a magical land.

Dungeon of the Endless is a throwback 2D game that features updated 3D graphics. The objective is to protect the generator of a crashed ship while also exploring dungeons and facing monsters. It will be available on console and PC.

Both Battletech and Battlefleet Gothic Armada 2 are available on PC only.

There are also several games leaving the service on June 15. Those include:

  • Book of Demons
  • Everspace
  • Resident Evil Revelations
  • Riptide GP: Renegade
  • Riverbond
  • Samorost 3
  • Superhot
  • Supermarket Shriek
  • The Last Door: Season 2
  • The Stillness of the Wind

The service also allows for first-day access to certain games like the upcoming title Grounded, a new multiplayer survival game where players are shrunken down and need to fight their way out of a backyard. It will be available for pre-install on June 16.

Xbox Game Pass members will also have access to The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind as a free upgrade to the game for console on June 11. The upgrade includes Morrowind, Summerset, Elsweyr, and the new Greymoor chapter.

Xbox Game Pass costs less than $15 a month and offers a massive backlog of games on Xbox and Windows.

3 new Game Pass games to play this weekend (June 13-15)

If you're a superstitious person, Friday the 13th might be a bad sign for this weekend. While I can't say you won't encounter any bad luck, what I can promise is that you will have more than enough fun with all the new Game Pass games hitting the service. Last weekend's Xbox Games Showcase showed off too many upcoming Xbox Series X games to count, most of which will be day-one Game Pass games when they come out, but we still have a while to wait for games like Keeper and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. All that excitement may have overshadowed the latest batch of Game Pass games, including a fantastic day one sci-fi survival game like nothing else, a delightful co-op strategy game, and the biggest sports game just in time for the World Cup.

After the State of Play last week, followed by all the Summer Game Fest announcements, PlayStation fans have tons of upcoming PS5 games to look forward to. The only downside is we can't play them right now. That's where my weekly PS Plus game recommendations come in to save the weekend. This time around, I wanted to mix things up by celebrating Friday the 13th as well as give you some games to wet your appetites for a few of the more exciting game announcements. I've crammed in a classic multiplayer game, brutal single-player adventure, and cult classic strategy title here to cover as many bases as possible.

Everything announced at Xbox Games Showcase 2025: Black Ops 7, Persona 4, and more

Following a killer State of Play and a dud of a Summer Game Fest, Xbox spun the game reveal wheel with its own live stream. The Xbox Games Showcase broadcasted today and it gave us a very clear picture of what the rest of the console's 2025 will look like, as well as its 2026. That was sorely needed, because we knew about a lot of games coming to Xbox but we didn't have many release dates for them. That changed a bit today, though we didn't see the games we expected.

The Outer Worlds 2 and Ninja Gaiden 4 got big release date reveals, and we learned a whole lot more about Clockwork Revolution. What we didn't see, though, was Fable, Gears of War: E-Day, or Perfect Dark. Those were some surprising omissions, but we still got plenty of surprises anyways. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Persona 4 is getting a remake, and Obsidian is launching a third game this year with Grounded 2. That was just the tip of the iceberg in what was a so-so showing for Xbox. Here's out rundown of every announcement.
