Xbox reveals the second wave of games hitting Game Pass in June 2026. Check out the release dates, major franchises, and the titles leaving the service soon.

Microsoft has officially announced the next group of games launching on Xbox Game Pass for June 2026. Today’s announcement marks yet another diverse set of titles for Game Pass subscribers, including popular sports franchises, AAA shooters, and even some indie exclusives. 

The brand has been focusing heavily on subscriber growth lately and continues to showcase a variety of ways it can provide value across its tiers. Console, PC, and cloud subscribers will have no shortage of new games to play between now and the end of the month. 

Microsoft has done a good job at allowing larger franchises to join the service while also giving indie games that are launching day-one a spot on Game Pass.
