Xbox Game Pass Subscribers Can Play Football Manager, Warhammer Survivors and More Now

On Tuesday, Nov. 3, Microsoft announced the games it’s adding to its Xbox Game Pass service in the first half of November. However, Rockstar Games is preparing to release Grand Theft Auto 6 on Nov. 19, so that game will likely take up a lot of your playtime from then on. That still leaves plenty of time to give these upcoming Game Pass titles a shot. I’m particularly excited about Warhammer Survivors. I enjoyed Vampire Survivors, and can’t wait to play as Fo’Baran, the chaplain of my beloved Salamanders from Warhammer 40K.

Xbox Game Pass, a CNET Editors’ Choice award winner, offers a wide selection of games you can play on your Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One and PC or mobile device for as little as $10 a month. With a higher-tier Game Pass Ultimate subscription ($23 per month), you can access hundreds of games, including new ones on release day, each month. 

Here are all the games Microsoft is adding to Xbox Game Pass soon.

Escape Academy 2: Back 2 School

Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers can play now.

Class is back in session in this puzzle game. This sequel to the award-winning Escape Academy brings you more puzzles to solve and a series-first open-world format. That makes the campus one big puzzle room filled with secrets, traps and more. If you get stuck, you can always chill with your friends and enjoy student life away from the classroom. The choice is yours.

Warhammer Survivors

Poncle, the creator of the indie hit Vampire Survivors, teamed up with Auroch Digital to let you bring your favorite Warhammer primarchs and champions into bullet-heaven action. Each character has their own special ability to help you defeat waves of enemies. Every stage is a new arena full of enemies and secrets to uncover. So grab your chainsword and whirlwind axes, because there are pixelated enemies to destroy.

These other games are also coming to Xbox Game Pass

In addition to the titles above, Xbox is also adding these games to Game Pass soon:

Xbox Game Pass Essential gets new games too

Game Pass Essential costs $10 a month and offers access to a relatively small library of games compared with Game Pass Premium and Ultimate. While Microsoft doesn’t regularly add many games to Essential’s library, it’s adding these eight titles to this Game Pass tier on Nov. 15.

Games leaving Xbox Game Pass on Nov. 15

While Microsoft is adding several games to Game Pass soon, it’s also removing over a dozen games on Nov. 15. So you’ll have to buy these games separately if you still need to complete your main campaign or any side quests after they’re removed.
