July’s Xbox Game Pass line-up officially announced

In amongst a plethora of bad news pertaining to Microsoft and its cutting of over 3000 Xbox employees (while parting ways with 5 of its studios), the console maker is continuing to truck along with business as usual. As part of this, Microsoft has now officially detailed all of the titles “coming soon” to Xbox Game Pass.

Taking to their Xbox Wire blog to make the announcement, Microsoft unveiled the line-up of Xbox Game Pass titles set to drop onto the service between now and the 3rd week of July:

• Gears of War: Reloaded – 9th July
• Tamashika – 9th July
• Ascend to Zero – 13th July
• PBA Pro Bowling 2026 – 14th July
• Quarantine Zone: The Last Check – 15th July
• Mavrix by Matt Jones – 16th July
• FixForce – 17th July
• Fogpiercer – 17th July
• The Planet Crafter – 21st July
• Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 – 21st July

Full details on the line-up (including which tiers are getting what) can be found HERE. Overall however, July looks to be one of Game Pass’ weaker offerings.

Unfortunately, the announcement of new Game Pass titles also comes alongside its own downsides, with the following set to depart from the service on the 15th of July:

• Dungeons of Hinterberg
• EA Sports Football Club 24
• Stellaris
• Golf With Your Friends
• Minami Lane
• Powerwash Simulator
• Shadow of the Tomb Raider Definitive Edition
• Splitgate: Arena Reloaded
• Super Fantasy Kingdom
• Techtonica
