🔗 Share this article The First Game Pass Games of 2026 Show Xbox Is Still Fighting. Across the gaming landscape, enthusiasts continue to ring the death bells for the green team. Microsoft's console just got outsold by a lesser-known competitor. Xbox fan sites began covering regarding Sony's platform for the first time. Last year proved to be a period of total upheaval for the tech giant's gaming arm. However, judging purely by the titles headed to the service in 2026, it's evident that Microsoft still intends to draw people in with compelling titles on its premier subscription. The Current Inclusions The duo of games currently accessible at this moment, Brews & Bastards and Little Nightmares Enhanced Edition, don't represent the biggest draws. Instead, the excitement lies in what's arriving to Game Pass in the coming weeks that's deserving of attention. Upcoming Headline Games Starting January 13th, Game Pass will add the underrated Star Wars Outlaws, a vast exploration title that refreshes typical Ubisoft design with a space-faring criminal escapade. An additional significant inclusion is Resident Evil Village with its iconic tall vampire, previously described as "an ideal blend of frights and fights." Intriguing Niche Additions However, the more modest titles set to join the catalog are quite compelling. Lost In Random: The Eternal Die, the criminally overlooked roguelike offering thrilling gameplay, arrives January 7th — and you should try it whether or not you experienced the first Lost in Random game. This UK-developed survival title from last year may draw you in within just a quarter of an hour. Atomfall, a game blending infiltration and resource management by the developers behind Sniper Elite, also warrants your attention. Ultimate tier members also have Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine – Master Crafted Edition to look forward to. A Well-Rounded Collection Ultimately, these aren't the most groundbreaking additions to Game Pass, and they are also not first-party juggernauts that validate the subscription in the first place. Yet, this selection are rock solid. The lineup provides a solid mix of older titles you may have skipped and new-ish games that failed to receive the spotlight they warranted upon launch — rendering them ideal prospects to get a second chance on Game Pass. You might need to brace yourself to say goodbye to The Grinch Christmas Adventures, as it happens.
