Xbox has announced the second batch of Xbox Game Pass games that'll be joining its subscription service for the rest of June 2026. This second batch is meaningfully smaller than the first, though it still has a couple of big-name franchises attached. Like EA Sports FC 26, which heads to the service fresh off its extra stint on PS Plus Essential, to keep the world's biggest football game in front of as many players during football's biggest event, the FIFA World Cup.
The other notable headliner is Call of Duty: Vanguard, which feels like a soft launch for Xbox's reported plans to add older Call of Duty titles to Game Pass now that we won't be getting the brand-new releases into Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. As for the other five games either entering or moving between tiers in the service between today and the opening days of July, indie sensation RV There Yet? from last year's whirlwind of hit indie releases is more than worth checking out.
As is Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4, which is the one game that's simply jumping from one tier to another, as players subscribed to the second-rung Premium tier will now be able to play it.
Here's the full list of games, when they arrive, what platforms you can find them and what tiers can access them:
- Junkster - June 16 - Cloud, PC, Xbox Series X/S - PC Game Pass, Game Pass Ultimate
- Call of Duty: Vanguard - June 17 - Cloud, PC, Console - Game Pass Premium, Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass
- EA Sports FC 26 - June 18 - Cloud, PC, Console - Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass
- Abyssus - June 25 - Cloud, PC, Xbox Series X/S - Game Pass Premium, Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass
- RV There Yet? - June 30 - Cloud, PC, Xbox Series X/S - Game Pass Premium, Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass
- Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 - July 2 - Cloud, PC, Console - Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, now also on Game Pass Premium
- Winds of Arcana: Ruination - July 6 - Cloud, PC, Console - Game Pass Premium, Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass
It's a smaller batch than what started the month with games like Persona 5 Royal, Undisputed, and Total Chaos thrown into the service, though it's doubtful that Xbox will catch slack for a lax Game Pass month when there are much bigger fish to fry if you've a bone to pick with Team Green.
Right now, the entire industry is waiting to find out just how terrible the reported mass layoffs at Xbox will be. We know of at least two studios that are heading for closure if they can't negotiate a buyout or find a new parent company, and we know that several more are on alert that they may also be on the chopping block.
Even if there's no threat of closure, the threat of mass layoffs and project cancellations apply across the entire Xbox Games Studios portfolio. After such a high of celebrating what's coming next in the industry with all of the announcements from Summer Game Fest, the rest of June is set to end on an incredibly low, sour note for the entire industry.
