Best new Xbox Game Pass games: April 2022

You'll rarely go wrong with the diverse selection of games on Xbox Game Pass, but there are always a handful of titles that stand above the rest — including, but not limited to, exceptional indie games, addictive multiplayer games, expansive AAA games, and Microsoft's first-party titles and projects. These are the best new games that have recently arrived on Xbox Game Pass that you shouldn't hesitate to play.

Lost in Random

  • Available: April 14 (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Xbox Cloud Gaming, & PC)

Lost in Random does establish its premise as "embracing the absurd" early on, but it really sells itself through its fantastic writing and genuinely funny humor. The game tackles a lot of difficult topics while weaving through its focus on random, and it's an interesting story that's sure to sit with you long after the credits roll.

Life is Strange: True Colors

  • Available: April 12 (Xbox Series X|S Optimized, XBox One, Xbox Cloud Gaming, & PC)

The critically acclaimed narrative-heavy franchise continues with Life is Strange: True Colors, which tells a beautiful story populated by interesting characters. While the latest entry may still not quite live up to the absurd expectations set by the first Life is Strange, this is still an excellent game to experience through Xbox Game Pass.

MLB The Show 22

  • Available: April 4 (Xbox Series X|S Optimized, Xbox One, & Xbox Cloud Gaming)

For the second year, one of the best baseball sports games in the industry arrives on Xbox and Xbox Game Pass on day one. MLB The Show 22 builds on its predecessor in a variety of ways, and can be enjoyed on console or through the cloud with Xbox Series X|S Optimizations. Core game modes and some lingering bugs remain unchanged, but this is still an excellent entry in the long-running franchise.

Upcoming games launching on Xbox Game Pass

Microsoft gives us updates on games heading to Xbox Game Pass a few weeks before those games become available, usually twice a month. However, Xbox and ID@Xbox events toss aside this expectation to announce a flurry of games that are hitting Xbox Game Pass day and date, meaning they're launching into the service when they land on Xbox platforms. That means day one access to all of these games for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, including some of the best upcoming Xbox games.

Many of these games are far enough out that they don't even have a release date, and we're not certain exactly which platforms they'll come to through Xbox Game Pass. Still, this list in our Xbox Game Pass guide will give you an idea of what to look out for in the future of Xbox Game Pass. We'll constantly update this list as we get new information about release dates, when games become available, and what platforms are getting them.
