Xbox Game Pass has another eight-game wave scheduled from October 21 through November 3, 2026. The lineup combines a major RPG with supernatural investigation, cooperative dungeon scavenging, and several smaller releases. The most useful detail for subscribers is that platform and membership eligibility vary between games.
Every game in the new Game Pass wave
The following schedule follows the official Xbox announcement. Cloud access depends on an eligible subscription and supported region; a PC Game Pass listing does not itself grant cloud play.
| Game | Date in 2026 | Platforms | Listed memberships |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sandustry — Game Preview | October 21 | PC | Ultimate, PC Game Pass; see note below |
| Dodo Duckie | October 22 | Series X|S, PC, Cloud | Ultimate, Premium, PC Game Pass |
| Scramble Knights Online — Game Preview | October 26 | Series X|S, PC, Cloud | Ultimate, PC Game Pass |
| The Séance of Blake Manor | October 27 | Series X|S, PC, Cloud | Ultimate, Premium, PC Game Pass |
| Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade | October 29 | Series X|S, PC, Cloud | Ultimate, Premium, PC Game Pass |
| Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted | October 29 | Console, PC, Cloud | Ultimate, PC Game Pass |
| Terrible Lizards | October 29 | Series X|S, PC, Cloud | Ultimate, PC Game Pass |
| Pit of Goblin | November 3 | Series X|S, PC, Cloud | Ultimate, Premium, PC Game Pass |
Sandustry eligibility note: Xbox Wire also labels this a Premium addition while listing PC as its only platform. Premium subscribers should check the Xbox app for their account’s actual entitlement before assuming PC access.
How to choose your next download
For a longer RPG commitment, Intergrade is the obvious starting point: its Midgar adventure combines direct action with command-based decisions. If you would rather investigate than fight, Blake Manor centers on a disappearance at an Irish hotel in 1897.
Our suggestion is to decide by the kind of session you want. A large RPG suits a sustained playthrough, while a cooperative release can be a better choice when friends have a shared evening available. Checking the platform column first also prevents planning around a game that your device cannot install.

Game Preview and release-day checks
Sandustry and Scramble Knights Online carry the Game Preview label. Treat their current builds as works in progress when deciding whether to begin a long campaign or invite a group to play. Check the individual store page for the latest development notes.
Before downloading any entry, confirm its release status, supported device, and subscription access in the Xbox app. Dates in an announcement identify the scheduled arrival day; they do not guarantee that every region will see an unlock at local midnight.
