July 10, 2026 - 20:08

Microsoft has rolled out the first batch of games arriving on Xbox Game Pass in July 2026, bringing roughly a dozen new titles to subscribers. The lineup includes a mix of day-one releases, returning favorites, and indie surprises for Game Pass Ultimate, PC, and Core members.

Leading the charge is the action-adventure title "Echoes of the Depths," launching directly into the service on July 3. The game follows a deep-sea explorer uncovering an ancient underwater civilization, and early previews have praised its atmospheric world and puzzle design. Also arriving on day one is "Neon Drift," a fast-paced arcade racer set in a cyberpunk city, hitting Game Pass on July 8.

For fans of strategy, "Empire Reforged" drops on July 10, offering a fresh take on historical conquest with updated diplomacy mechanics. Horror enthusiasts can look forward to "The Hollowing," a psychological thriller set in an abandoned asylum, coming July 15. On the lighter side, "Paws & Claws: Island Adventure" brings family-friendly simulation gameplay on July 17.

Several older titles are also making a return to the catalog, including "Hollow Knight: Silksong" and "Forza Horizon 5," which were previously removed but are back due to popular demand. "Starfield" gets a new expansion titled "Shattered Veil," available to Game Pass Ultimate subscribers at no extra cost starting July 20.

Microsoft confirmed that more titles will be announced later in the month, along with the usual list of games leaving the service. Subscribers can expect the full July 2026 roadmap to be posted on the official Xbox Wire blog in the coming days.
