There’s a lot to play on “day one with Game Pass”

Minecraft is officially expanding again with a major new game this September
During the Xbox Games Showcase 2026, Microsoft showed a complete lineup of new games coming to Xbox in the months ahead. As expected, many of those new and previously announced titles will also be part of the Game Pass catalog. Xbox’s June showcase focused on the familiar instead of pushing boundaries, letting everyone know Microsoft is getting back to its roots — and playing it safe by relying on its best-loved franchises.
