Xbox Game Pass Set for Six New Titles in April 2025

REDMOND, Wash. — Xbox Game Pass is gearing up for a hefty addition of six new titles, enhancing its library with exciting offerings for subscribers in April 2025. This latest roster includes some highly anticipated day one releases, set to launch throughout the month.

The first of the new games, South of Midnight, is scheduled to join Xbox Game Pass on April 8. The game is an action-adventure title developed by Compulsion Games, drawing inspiration from southern folklore and featuring a distinctive art style akin to stop-motion animation.

Following closely is Commandos: Origins, along with Descenders Next, both expected on April 9. The former is anticipated to enhance the classic tactical gameplay fans expect from the Commandos series, while the latter offers an exciting continuation of the beloved extreme sports saga.

On April 10, players can look forward to Blue Prince, a first-person puzzle game that has garnered acclaim for its innovative design, praised by former PlayStation executive Shuhei Yoshida. Then, on April 17, the whimsical Tempopo will join the fold.

Finally, the highly-anticipated turn-based RPG, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, will launch on April 24, following a successful trailer release that showcased its unique blend of turn-based and real-time mechanics.

The absence of seven titles, including two classic Sega games, is expected on March 15, heightening the anticipation for both the new arrivals and the remaining catalog. The March 2025 Xbox Game Pass lineup has already seen significant engagement, particularly with the addition of the first-party title Avowed and the critically-acclaimed FPS game, boosting the service’s value for subscribers.

Looking ahead, May 2025 promises more excitement with games like Revenge of the Savage Planet, launching on May 8, and the new title from the creator of Katamari Damacy, To a T, set for release on May 28. Players are advised to keep an eye on the platform as more titles are yet to be announced.

The Xbox Game Pass service continues to evolve, offering diverse and thrilling gaming experiences. Whether fans are eagerly awaiting the upcoming titles or are catching up on those currently available, April 2025 is shaping up to be a standout month for Xbox gamers.
