Xbox has officially confirmed the next batch of games coming to Xbox Game Pass. This upcoming Xbox Game Pass lineup includes a diverse collection of eight games, ranging from a renowned skateboarding game to a fast-paced action roguelite to a sci-fi deckbuiler, and a whole lot in between.
Last month was a fairly good one for Xbox Game Pass. With Persona 5 Royal headlining, Undisputed landing just before it, and plenty of smaller-scale games spread throughout the month, June offered decent bang for the player’s buck. Though Xbox Game Pass’ July 2026 lineup might not feature such a strong headliner, there’s some really intriguing experiences on offer.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is Getting 8 New Games This Month

Spread throughout the month of July, Xbox Game Pass is getting eight new additions this month.

Ascend to Zero is an action roguelike and a day-one Xbox Game Pass game that arrives on July 13. A day later, Game Pass subscribers can get their hands on PBA Pro Bowling 2026, and on July 16 they’ll get access to Mavrix, an open-world multiplayer extreme sports game designed by Pro Red Bull Athlete Matt Jones.

On July 17, Xbox Game Pass subscribers will have two very different games to play. While FixForce is a 1-5-player co-op extraction shooter set in a WALL-E-like world, Fogpiercer is a methodical sci-fi roguelike deckbuilder that sees players piloting a weaponized train. The same is set to occur on July 21, with Game Pass subscribers getting both The Planet Crafter and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, the former of which is described as a “chill terraforming experience” while the latter is widely considered to be one of the most renowned remakes in recent years.
