If you’re looking for new games to play, look no further, as there’s another wave of titles hitting Xbox Game Pass in the coming weeks. The end of January brings a number of new releases to Microsoft’s game subscription service, including the eagerly-anticipated Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector .
If you’re looking to fight massive constructs and experiment with the elements, you’ll also want to keep an eye out for Eternal Strands , the debut title from Yellow Brick Games, a studio founded by veterans from BioWare and Ubisoft. The latest entry in the Orcs Must Die! franchise is also on the way, bringing co-op orc-slaying and tower defense for players to enjoy.
Below, you’ll find the full list of games headed to the different tiers of Xbox Game Pass soon:
Lonely Mountain: Snow Riders (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox Cloud Gaming, Windows PC) – Ultimate, PC
Flock (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) – Standard

As usual, there’s a handful of games that are leaving the service soon. If you want to keep playing these games, you’ll need to buy them. Remember that buying a game while it’s still in Game Pass gives you a discount, so act fast and you’ll save some money. Here’s what’s leaving on January 31:
Anuchard
Broforce Forever
Darkest Dungeon
Death’s Door
Maquette
Serious Sam: Siberian Mayhem
While the year has been a bit slow to really get moving, this is an excellent mixture of games. I’m particularly excited about Citizen Sleeper 2. I’m also looking forward to checking out Eternal Strands and Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap when they arrive.
Once February gets here, the Xbox first-party onslaught is slated to begin starting with Obsidian Entertainment’s Avowed. There’s plenty of other games like Compulsion Games’ South of Midnight and id Software’s DOOM: The Dark Ages that are also supposed to launch this year, so hopefully we’re getting release dates soon.
