Get ready for wildcards, ice hockey, and pottery deathmatches in April
Microsoft just revealed a new batch of games coming to Xbox Game Pass, and this month is packed. Several day-one releases are on the way, and in between those big launches, you’ll have a chance to catch up on other titles you might have missed.
One of the biggest highlights is Hades 2, which was only available on PC and Switch 2 when it launched in late 2025. This sequel builds on the first Hades and adds even more depth, rewarding players who experiment and stick with it as they try to defeat the Titan of Time. Other day-one releases include Doublefine’s pottery-themed brawler Kiln, the long-awaited dystopian adventure Replaced, and the deck-building game Vampire Crawlers.
As always, a few games will leave Game Pass on April 15. Check out the full list of April’s upcoming Game Pass titles below.
