Read all the latest Xbox Game Pass information below:

Coming Soon

Night Call (Console, ID@Xbox) – June 24
As a cab driver working the Paris night shift, you’re many things to different people: friend, confidant, counselor, voyeur. You have the keen ability to get people to talk; and that’s exactly what you’ll need to do. In seven nights, a corrupt detective plans to pin a series of murders on you unless you can aid the investigation. Pick up passengers, listen to their stories, and gather clues to solve a mystery in three unique cases.

Observation (Console & PC, ID@Xbox) – June 25
A sci-fi thriller uncovering what happened to Dr. Emma Fisher, and the crew of her mission, through the lens of the station’s artificial intelligence S.A.M. Players assume the role of S.A.M. by operating the station’s control systems, cameras, and tools to assist Emma in discovering what is happening to the station, the vanished crew, and S.A.M. himself.

Streets of Rogue (Console, ID@Xbox) – June 25
A rogue-lite about player choice, freedom, and anarchic fun. Taking inspiration from fast-paced top-down rogue-lites, that adds free-form, experimentation-driven, emergent gameplay elements of immersive sims and RPGs. Rather than taking place in a dungeon, the game is set in a functioning, procedurally generated city, where complex AI informs denizens from all walks of life who are going about their daily activities.

The Messenger (Console, ID@Xbox) – June 25
Already available on PC, welcome to Console! As a demon army besieges his village, a young ninja ventures through a cursed world, to deliver a scroll paramount to his clan’s survival. What begins as a classic action platformer soon unravels into an expansive time-traveling adventure full of thrills, surprises, and humor.

In Case You Missed It 

Ready to explore a new world? Or at least pretend to be while reading this and wishing you were exploring a new world outside? Some recent ID@Xbox titles will transport you to distant horizons and unfamiliar dimensions. Let’s peek behind the scenes with the devs of seven different games that we know you’ll love (we’ve seen the subreddits).

West of Dead (Console & PC, ID@Xbox) – Available Now
Descend into the grim and gritty world of Purgatory in this fast-paced cover shooter which combines the fluidity of twin-stick controls and tactical cover usage. Dodge behind cover as you try to outgun your enemies in the unknown procedurally generated hunting grounds.

DLC / Game Updates

Minecraft Nether Update Available Now
Get to know the dark side of Minecraft. New biomes, mobs, and blocks heat up an already fiery dimension. Discover Netherite, a material stronger than diamond. Beware the Piglins, and prepare to battle or barter. Avoid Hoglins, or hunt them! Explore the Nether Wastes, Souls and Valleys, or the Crimson and Warped Forests. But don’t forget to craft a Respawn Anchor. Just in case.

Sea of Thieves ‘The Greatest Tales Never Told’ Contest 
Encouraging pirates everywhere to recreate their own favorite tale of time well spent on the Sea of Thieves. All you need to do to participate is: record the telling of your most memorable adventure in a way that makes best use of your own creativity and the tools offered below, and share it with us using #SoTTalesContest on Instagram, Twitter, or YouTube!
