Xbox Game Pass is adding a ton of new games for the holiday season

Xbox constantly rotates games in and out of its Xbox Game Pass catalog. This holiday season is no different, as Microsoft plans to add several new titles in December.

Game Pass continues to be one of the best deals in gaming today. The catalog consists of more than 100 games that players can download and play anytime they want until they’re rotated out.

As we kick off December, a few new games are available on Game Pass via Xbox Cloud Gaming, console, or PC. And even more are coming in the next few weeks.

Play these games today

We’ll kick things off with the new games on Game Pass that you can play today. First up is Eastward, available on Cloud, Console, and PC.

Eastward is a unique, isometric RPG following the story of John and Sam as they brave the lands of Eastward.

Ravaged by unusual creatures, Eastward is on the brink of apocalypse, and Sam’s mystic powers could hold the secrets of bringing it back.

Also available today is The Walking Dead: The Final Season. Play through the emotional final season of this epic zombie story on Cloud, Console, or PC with Game Pass.

If you have Game Pass on your PC, you can play Totally Reliable Delivery Service. This sandbox lets you join up to three friends to deliver

And in case you missed it last week, Xbox added Battlefield 2042 to the Game Pass list. Thanks to EA Play, you can hop in the latest shooter from EA on Cloud, Console, and PC.

Of course, whenever new games are added, Xbox tends to rotate some older games out of Game Pass.
