The new year has officially kicked off, and right on cue, a new batch of games are being added to the Xbox Game Pass library. So what can you expect this month? A few familiar titles are returning, while the first wave will also include several recent releases. There’s the twin-stick shooter Brews & Bastards–where you get to blast your way through hordes of drunken demons–Mio: Memories in Orbit is a hand-crafted metroidvania and you can save Zephyr Heights with the My Little Pony crew.
Ahead of the release of Resident Evil Requiem next month, you can check out its predecessor, Resident Evil Village, or for something less gruesome, Ubisoft’s Star Wars Outlaws will let you live your best life as a scoundrel in a galaxy far (far!) away. Microsoft typically releases Game Pass titles in two waves, so check back soon for the next batch.
As for Game Pass removals in January, you only have a few more days left to check out games like Neon White, Road 96, and The Ascent before they’re removed from the catalog on January 15.
