Xbox Game Pass reveals more hits. FC 26, Tony Hawk and new releases are already on the way

Calendar 6/17/2026

Microsoft has unveiled a new list of titles that will arrive in the Xbox Game Pass library in the coming weeks. Players can expect both major franchises from Electronic Arts and Activision, as well as brand-new releases available from day one. The lineup also includes indie games and new updates for popular titles. The coming weeks promise to be especially busy for subscribers. The offering looks particularly interesting for fans of sports and action games.

EA Sports FC 26 and Call of Duty: Vanguard Lead the New Lineup

The biggest highlight of the upcoming update is undoubtedly EA Sports FC 26, which will join EA Play on June 18th. Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers will receive access to the full game along with additional bonuses, including a special Supercharge Pack and regular Ultimate Team rewards. This is the next installment in Electronic Arts' football series, which is expected to attract millions of players before the start of the new season.

Call of Duty: Vanguard will also be added to the library a day earlier. Developed by Sledgehammer Games, it will offer a full story campaign, an extensive multiplayer mode, and the popular Zombies mode developed by Treyarch. This is another step by Microsoft in gradually expanding the Call of Duty brand's presence in Game Pass.

Players can already check out the premiere of Junkster, a 3D action platformer with building elements. New titles will also be released in the coming days, such as the co-op FPS Abyssus and the survival RV There Yet? and the metroidvania Winds of Arcana: Ruination. Microsoft is clearly focusing on genre diversity, so everyone should find something for themselves.

Tony Hawk is back, but some games are leaving the service

The start of July will bring another big debut. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, a remastered version of two cult-classic entries in the series, will arrive on Game Pass. Players will get improved graphics, new skaters, additional parks, and an expanded soundtrack. For many fans of skateboarding classics, this could be one of the most important releases of the year.

Microsoft also reminded players about new updates for existing games. The fourth content season has already launched in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, while Sea of Thieves will get season 20 on June 18, which will introduce the ability to create your own rules of play with the Custom Seas mode. Additionally, subscribers can claim special in-game bonuses for titles such as Goals, Where Winds Meet, and World of Tanks: Modern Armor. There were, however, some farewells. On June 30 several popular titles will leave the library, including Rise of the Tomb Raider, Tomb Raider, Slay the Spire, Payday 2, Unpacking, and Ultimate Chicken Horse. Anyone interested in these games still has some time to finish them or buy them at a subscriber discount.

The latest Xbox Game Pass update brings several very strong titles, led by EA Sports FC 26, Call of Duty: Vanguard and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4. Microsoft is steadily expanding its service, offering both high-profile franchises and day-one releases. Subscribers can expect an especially busy period full of new games and additional content.
