Xbox Game Pass is growing once more in October 2024, with a range of new games arriving for keen players of eldritch card games, solid sports games, and tear-jerking adventures. The list of inclusions is fairly robust for the month, and even includes a range of games that surprise-dropped during TGS 2024, including Trials of Mana and We Love Katamari remasters.
As in most months, there are also some departures on the way, but that’s how it goes on Xbox Game Pass. Games arrive, enjoy their time in the sun, and then depart with a brief wave.
