While Xbox Game Pass rarely goes a month without getting at least something new that’s worth checking out, it’s certainly had its dry spells in recent years. The back half of January, however, has quietly revealed a surprising number of cool new games hitting the Netflix-like subscription service,

On January 31, Xbox Game Pass will remove Death's Door and five other titles. Death's Door, a highly-rated indie game, combines Soulslike elements with Zelda-style gameplay. Darkest Dungeon is another well-reviewed game leaving Game Pass in January 2025.

While the addition of Crash Bandicoot 4 and NFL 25 to Xbox Game Pass has yet to be officially confirmed, the possibility for it to actually happen remains at an all-time high, especially considering that the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is already available on the platform.

This pass features member deals and is an excellent way to test out titles to make sure you like them before purchasing them outright.

Xbox has revealed its next batch of games coming to its Game Pass subscription service, four of which are brand-new titles coming to the platform on day one of their release. The Xbox Wire post also explores the games that will be leaving the service at the end of the month to make room for the new ones.

One of the biggest new game releases of the year confirms exactly when it will be joining the Xbox Game Pass service.
