Xbox Game Pass has set an incredibly high bar for itself ahead of next year. But if everything goes to plan and every game currently slated for 2025 ends up releasing,Xbox Game Passcould live up to the lofty expectations it’s inadvertently placed on itself.
What Fans Can Expect From Xbox Game Pass in 2025
Every 2025 Xbox Game Pass Title With a Concrete Release Date
Xbox Game Pass is kicking the year off strong, delivering a January line-up that includes five games, including three day-one releases. Two more2025 Xbox Game Pass titleshave also been given concrete release dates for early next year:
Of the seven Game Pass titles with a concrete 2025 release date, Obsidian Entertainment’sAvowedis probably the most anticipated of the lot, having been announced all the way back in July 2020. Set in Eora, the same fantasy world asObsidian’sPillars of Eternityseries,Avowedwill be an action-RPG that focuses on offering players a diverse set of weapons and abilities.
Developer Rebellion is set to release two games on Xbox Game Pass this year, withSniper Elite: Resistancehitting the service in January andAtomfalllanding in March. WhileSniper Elite: Resistancewill offer more of the third-person sniping action fans have come to expect from the long-runningWW2 franchise,Atomfallwill offer a survival game set in an alternate version of the 1960s, where the 1957 Windscale nuclear plant fires have decimated Northern England.
Every Other Xbox Game Pass Title Currently Slated for 2025
Another 16 games are confirmed to be coming to Xbox Game Pass next year, though they only have general 2025 release windows:
There are a good few games on this list that fans have been waiting quite some time for.Fable, for instance, was first announced in 2020, and the franchise’s last mainline entry came all the way back in 2010. Along withFable,Xbox’s first-party studiosare set to releaseSouth of MidnightandDoom: The Dark Agesnext year, both of which should appear on Game Pass on day one.
It should be noted, however, that as these games don’t have concrete release dates yet, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that some could get delayed out of the year.
