Xbox Game Pass New Games for July 2024 Wish List

Now over halfway through, 2024 continues to be yet another solid year for Xbox Game Pass. Though the last few months haven’t featured quite as many high-profile releases as January or February, Xbox Game Pass’ library has continued to grow more diverse, with a wealth of games from different genres being added on a regular basis, and July looks to be no exception.

There are currently five games confirmed for Xbox Game Pass’ July 2024 line-up, and there are already some big names on that list. Both Dungeons of Hinterberg and Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn are heading to Xbox Game Pass on day one, which happens to be July 18 for both. But oddly enough, the five confirmed Xbox Game Pass titles for July 2024 are all hitting the service in the latter half of the month, meaning there’s a lot of space left to fill. Thankfully, there are plenty of games fans would love to see come to Xbox Game Pass this July.

Xbox Game Pass New Game for July 2024: Baldur’s Gate 3

The most pie-in-the-sky pick for this wish list, it’s highly unlikely that Baldur’s Gate 3 will come to Xbox Game Pass this July, but it would be amazing if it did. The Game Awards’ 2023 Game of the Year, Baldur’s Gate 3 is a truly groundbreaking RPG that immerses players in the rich world of Dungeons and Dragons for its entire, extensive 60+ hour runtime. With Baldur’s Gate 3 having only hit Xbox platforms seven months ago, it seems unlikely that it’ll come to Game Pass anytime soon, though fans can always hope.

Xbox Game Pass New Game for July 2024: Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon

After the release of Elden Ring‘s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, the excitement surrounding FromSoftware and its vast library of great games is at an all-time high. While the Elden Ring-adjacent Dark Souls trilogy and Sekiro would be great to see on Xbox Game Pass, it might actually be more beneficial for FromSoftware to release Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon onto the subscription service, with it showing the versatility of the studio, and offering Elden Ring fans something different.

Xbox Game Pass New Game for July 2024: Mortal Kombat 1

Over the last year or so, Mortal Kombat 1 has been gradually adding to its already-sizable roster with a wave of DLC fighters. On July 23, the final fighter (Takeda) in Mortal Kombat 1‘s Kombat Pack will be released, marking the perfect opportunity for Mortal Kombat 1 to come to Xbox Game Pass. Though it isn’t without its fair share of criticisms, Mortal Kombat 1 is another great entry in the long-standing fighting game franchise, and most of its DLC offerings have been pretty great, with The Boys‘ Homelander, Invincible‘s Omni-Man, and DC’s Peacemaker now in the game.

Xbox Game Pass New Game for July 2024: Call of Duty: Black Ops Series

While this might be a bit of a cheat entry, it would be great to see just about any Call of Duty: Black Ops game come to Xbox Game Pass this July, with Black Ops 6‘s Direct kicking the new entry’s hype cycle into gear earlier this month. Call of Duty: Black Ops and Black Ops 2 would probably be the most requested entries to see on Game Pass, though Xbox is yet to put any older Activision games on the service.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is the highest tier of Microsoft’s flagship game subscription service that offers over 100 game titles that you can play with a single purchase, making it one of the most outstanding value propositions of the Xbox ecosystem to date.
