Microsoft has unveiled a new list of titles that will arrive in the Xbox Game Pass library in the coming days and weeks. Among them are high-profile day-one releases as well as long-awaited updates and open tests for new games. The biggest attraction of the lineup is undoubtedly early access to the open beta of Gears of War: E-Day.
Gears of War: E-Day and other new releases are coming to Xbox Game Pass
The biggest new feature Microsoft is offering is early access to the open beta of Gears of War: E-Day. Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers will get access to the tests on August 6. Players will be able to try a new Horde Siege PvE mode, which expands the familiar cooperative wave-based combat formula with larger maps, more participants, and more spectacular battles. PowerWash Simulator 2 will also arrive on the service that same day; the sequel to the popular cleaning simulator brings new locations, equipment, and additional gameplay features. On August 11 the catalog will expand with Bounty Star, a game that combines mech combat with base building and farming elements. That day will also see the arrival of the humorous dating simulator Date Everything!, in which players can form relationships with almost any object in the house. Grounded 2 will also return to the library with a major Into The Abyss update, expanding the game's world and the content of the early access title. Microsoft is also continuing its strategy of offering day-one releases, so subscribers don't have to buy new titles separately. All of these games will be rolled out to the service gradually in the first half of August.
August will bring more games and changes to the Xbox Game Pass library
The list of August additions doesn't stop at the biggest releases. On August 4 the service welcomed remastered versions of the classics Heretic and Hexen, as well as a new action RPG, Beast of Reincarnation, from Game Freak. On August 6 subscribers will also get the roguelite Monsters are Coming!, and the following day EA Play trials for EA Sports Madden NFL 27 will begin. The days after that will see the releases of Ball x Pit, Cricket 26, Mio: Memories in Orbit, Sandustry and Egging On. Microsoft also reminded Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops 7 players that they can claim a free cosmetic pack containing operator skins, weapon blueprints and other items. The company also announced games leaving the service on August 15. Atlas Fallen, Firewatch, Aliens: Fireteam Elite and Menace in Game Preview on PC will be removed from the library. That means anyone planning to finish those titles still has a few days to play them or buy them at a subscriber discount. The latest update shows that Microsoft continues to regularly expand the Game Pass library, offering both brand-new releases and returns of classic titles.
The first half of August is shaping up to be exceptionally busy for Xbox Game Pass subscribers. Microsoft has put together a mix of new releases, classics and big updates, and the biggest event will undoubtedly be the open beta of Gears of War: E-Day, available early to subscribers. Thanks to that, the Game Pass lineup will once again grow significantly.
