The Xbox Game Pass is kicking off 2026 with an impressive lineup of new games that will excite any gaming enthusiast. With seven fresh titles joining the service, including headline-grabbers like Resident Evil Village and Star Wars: Outlaws, subscribers are in for a treat. Additionally, three titles that were previously exclusive to the Ultimate tier are now available at the Premium tier, providing more options for players at different subscription levels.
Exciting New Titles Join Xbox Game Pass
This month’s collection has players buzzing with excitement, as reflected by one ResetEra user’s comment describing it as a “damn good month.” The lineup includes the eagerly awaited day-one release of MIO: Memories in Orbit, a new metroidvania adventure from Focus Entertainment and Douze Dixièmes. Alongside this, the collection features Resident Evil Village and Star Wars: Outlaws, two massive additions sure to thrill fans. Another notable inclusion is Little Nightmares Enhanced Edition, a remaster of the original that has been capturing players’ imaginations since its release last year.

For those subscribed to the Premium tier, an array of exciting games await. Players can dive into titles such as Atomfall, Rematch, Lost in Random: The Eternal Die, and Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine – Master Crafted Edition without needing the Ultimate tier upgrade.
