Xbox Game Pass Kicks Off August 2025 with Killer Lineup
Xbox is starting August strong with a fresh wave of Game Pass titles that span indie gems, AAA thrillers, and fan-favorite co-op games. Whether you’re into story-rich adventures, chaotic shooters, or strategic empire-building, there’s something new dropping almost every few days—plus a solid lineup of perks for Ultimate members. One of the biggest highlights? Assassin’s Creed Mirage, arriving August 7, ready to bring classic stealth-action vibes to cloud, console, and PC.
Alongside the new additions, Xbox Game Pass is also delivering a batch of exclusive content drops for titles like Smite 2, War Thunder, and Naraka Bladepoint. And with Madden NFL 26 kicking off an early access trial on August 7 via EA Play, sports fans get a head start before launch. But not all games stick around forever—Anthem, Farming Simulator 22, and Persona 3 Reload will leave the service on August 15, so now’s your last chance to dive in or grab them with your member discount.
