Xbox Game Pass adds one of the most highly anticipated games in recent memory as a day-one launch title for Ultimate subscribers to enjoy.

As usual, there could be plenty of additions to this list, and a few of these games might stick around on Xbox Game Pass for even longer, but it seems likely that we'll lose at least some of these in October 2025. Our predictions usually turn out to be anywhere from 30%-80% correct - you never know how accurate they'll be!

Silksong has finally released over six years after it was originally announced, but can you play it on Xbox Game Pass?

Microsoft has announced that the lower tiers of Xbox and PC Game Pass can use cloud streaming, just in time for the launch of Hollow Knight: Silksong.

Ex-Sony executive Shawn Layden recently made similar comments on Xbox Game Pass, arguing that it’s turning developers into “wage slaves”. He was quick to share Hines’ comments on social media, saying “Pete’s quote nails it”.

Every single month, Xbox and PC players are treated to a whole host of new games on Microsoft's Netflix-like game library service, Game Pass. From big games like GTA 5 to tiny indies, Game Pass is home to hundreds of fantastic games at a relatively low price.

A MudRunner Game, Riders Republic, and Train Sim World 5 are four of the games that will be added to Xbox Game Pass in the current month of September, Microsoft has announced.

Xbox Game Pass reveals the new perks that Ultimate subscribers will be able to claim once they each become available in September.

In September 2025's case, the new addition that really stands out is Hollow Knight: Silksong. That said, eight games in total are already confirmed to come to Game Pass Ultimate across PC and Xbox Series X.

As Xbox Game Pass grows ever bigger, I'm keeping careful track of the best new additions, upcoming arrivals, which games are leaving soon, and much more.
