Xbox Game Pass April 2025: What’s New? Discover April’s additions to Game Pass and when to start playing for free!

Xbox Game Pass April 2025  

Update April 16 – Microsoft has announced the wave 2 list for April and it brings 10 new great games to the lineup. It includes 3 day-one launches, one of which is under the Game Preview program: Towerborne. Also part are three confirmed titles for May. See updated schedule below.

Update April 8 – Xbox confirmed that GTA V and NHL 25 are coming to Game Pass this month. GTA V and GTA V Enhanced are coming to Game Pass on April 15th, while NHL is coming to Ultimate via EA Play on April 10th.

Update April 3 – It is indeed a great month for Xbox Game Pass subscribers! While the amount of day-one launches this month is enough to excite any member, the reveal of the wave 1 titles has just topped it up a notch. It’s even hard to mention which non-dayone title headlines this list because all are great games. Standard tier is also winning with some previous launch-day additions.

It is also worth noting that Descenders Next is no longer launching under the Game Preview/Early Access program on April 9th, meaning no Game Pass too. The release date has been pushed back with no target date as of writing.

Original publication – We may still be in March and probably still waiting for that surprise addition for this month as it feels a bit short BUT the April lineup is already making up for it.

The official announcement isn’t out yet but as of writing, we already have 7 games confirmed to enter Game Pass for April. Yes, because it’s ahead of the reveal that means we are getting 7 day-one launches next month. Maybe that’s why March feels a bit under?

 

Xbox Game Pass April 2025 Joining Titles

Xbox has just recently released March’s wave 2 list but even before that announcement, 6 games were already confirmed for April thanks to their day-one launches. And then as soon as the wave 2 news came, another title was confirmed to enter next month making it, as of writing, 7 games to enter service. It may sound cliche but April is really shaping up to be a great month.
