It’s a new month and for Xbox, a new fiscal year, which means thousands of layoffs and studios that have left the Xbox Game Studios line-up. Game Pass itself hasn’t met expectations, but the company is soldiering on regardless, announcing the first wave of titles coming in July.
It kicks off with 2.5 Metroidvania Winds of Arcana: Ruination, out now on Ultimate, Premiuma and PC Game Pass. Gears of War: Reloaded, a remaster of the original, joins Premium on July 9th alongside Tamashika, a corridor shooter coming to all three tiers.
Ascend to ZERO is next up on July 13th, launching on day one for the service and offering a rogue-like experience with time manipulation. July 14th sees the addition of PBA Pro Bowling 2026, answering the question of competitive bowling titles in today’s world.
Quarantine Zone: The Last Check arrives for Premium on July 15th, followed by Marvix by Matt Jones, a pro riding title with a focus on open-world multiplayer competition, on July 16th. Meanwhile, FixForce joins the line-up on July 17th with its co-op extraction repairing loop (as odd as that sounds). It arrives alongside rogue-like deck-builder Fogpiercer for PC.
Things improve drastically on July 21st with the addition of The Planet Crafter, a survival-crafting terraforming sandbox which recently received a massive new update. It will be available on all three tiers alongside Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2, the acclaimed remakes of the first two games with new skaters, levels, and much more.
Check out the list of all the titles leaving on July 15th. Be warned – it’s fairly lengthy and may contain some favorites:
