The Xbox Partner Preview for March 2026 showed off a slew of new third-party games coming to Xbox over the next few months and even into 2027, and as you’d expect, many of them are bound for Xbox’s Game Pass subscription service. The biggest names are sequels to beloved franchises, like Hades 2 and Super Meat Boy 3D, but there are lots of others coming as well.
Hades 2 is making its Xbox debut on April 14, and will be available on Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Play Anywhere. Even sooner than that you can play Super Meat Boy 3D, which launches March 31 on Game Pass. Stranger Than Heaven, the anticipated new game from RGG Studio, will also launch on Game Pass. It doesn’t have a release date yet, but we do know we’ll be hearing more about it as part of a presentation on May 6.
A few other standouts include Grave Seasons coming in August and The Eternal Life of Goldman with a release date to be announced. Grave Seasons is a cozy farming sim with a spooky twist, as the town appears to be hiding some macabre mysteries. The Eternal Life of Goldman is a beautiful 2D platformer with a hero that uses a modular cane that can serve as a pogo stick, grappling hook, and more.
You can find the full lineup of Game Pass titles announced during the presentation below, and be sure to check out our full roundup of all the Xbox Partner Preview announcements for more details on all of the games that were shown at this presentation.
