A Packed September Lineup

Microsoft has confirmed that 13 new games are being added to the Game Pass lineup, making September one of the busiest months of the year for subscribers. Players already have access to RoadCraft, a town and road repair simulator, but the real wave of content begins September 17.

Key highlights include Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, where you step into the boots of Captain Price and Task Force 141, and Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, a Vampire Survivors-style spinoff of the fan-favorite co-op mining shooter. Strategy fans can look forward to Overthrown, a chaotic kingdom management sim, while RPG lovers will enjoy the upcoming Visions of Mana.

Big Hits Returning and Day-One Launches

One of the most anticipated returns is Hades, making its comeback to Game Pass on September 19. Even though Hades 2 will be a timed console exclusive for Switch 2, fans can still dive back into the roguelike classic across Xbox and PC.

Frostpunk 2 debuts on September 18 for console players, while Endless Legend 2 joins as a day-one launch on September 22. On September 25, Peppa Pig: World Adventures arrives for younger audiences, while Visions of Mana and the classic Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light hit on September 25 and 30 respectively. To wrap up, Sopa: Tale of the Stolen Potato, an emotional adventure inspired by Latin American storytelling, launches October 7.
