One of the biggest perks players get with Xbox Game Pass is the large number of titles available on the service on day one. Obviously, all Xbox Game Studios titles get this treatment, but there are a fair amount of third-party games that hit the service at launch as well. While we expect more games will be added to the list of Xbox Game Pass day one releases, there are already quite a few that have been confirmed for 2022.
Which titles will be available on Xbox Game Pass at launch in 2022?
Microsoft has confirmed that any Xbox Game Studios title will hit Xbox Game Pass on day one. That means big games like Starfield will be available on their release date for subscribers. In addition, some highly anticipated third-party titles will also be available. Of note, both Total War: Warhammer III, and STALKER 2 will release on game pass on launch day.
