04/04/2025 9:24 AM

Xbox Game Pass kicks off April with a strong lineup of new additions, featuring 9 games confirmed for the first half of the month. From thrilling new releases to beloved classics, the catalog continues to evolve with one of its most diverse updates this year.

At the same time, several important games will be removed from the platform on April 15, marking a bittersweet shift for subscribers.

What’s coming in April: strategy, horror and long-awaited releases

The action begins on April 3, with the release of four new titles:

  • Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition, featuring all DLCs and chaotic co-op gameplay in a loot-heavy FPS world.
  • All You Need Is Help, a quirky co-op experience filled with humor and teamwork challenges.
  • Still Wakes The Deep, a psychological horror game set on a 1970s oil rig with a heavy narrative focus and atmospheric design.
  • Wargroove 2, a pixel-art strategy gem returning with new factions, an extended campaign, and online multiplayer.

On April 8, two standout additions arrive:

  • Diablo III: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition, still one of the most satisfying action RPGs around.
  • South of Midnight, an original launch with unique visuals inspired by southern folklore and magical realism.

Then, on April 9, comes Commandos: Origins, reviving the beloved real-time tactics franchise with modern updates and WWII missions.

Rounding out the lineup are:

  • Blue Prince (April 10), a surreal puzzle narrative title with indie roots.
  • Hunt Showdown 1896 (April 15), an alternate take on the classic shooter with a historical twist.

These games leave Game Pass on April 15

As new games arrive, others must leave. Among the most notable departures:

  • Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition, closing the trilogy of Lara Croft’s reboot with cinematic flair.
  • Orcs Must Die! 3, combining tower defense and third-person combat, also exits the catalog.

Additional departures include:

  • Botany Manor
  • Coral Island
  • Harold Halibut
  • Homestead Arcana
  • Kona
  • Turbo Golf Racing

Players have until April 15 to play or finish these titles before they’re removed from the platform.

A bold reshuffle for Game Pass this spring

This month’s update reflects a clear vision from Xbox: combining first-day releases with rotating content to keep the catalog fresh and appealing.

With exciting titles like Still Wakes The Deep and Commandos: Origins, Game Pass continues to position itself as a go-to destination for discovering games early. But the departure of iconic titles like Shadow of the Tomb Raider also serves as a reminder: on Game Pass, the clock is always ticking.
