The Xbox Series X/S boasts a substantial and diverse game library, encompassing both AAA titles and indie gems. Microsoft's dual-console strategy, featuring the high-end Series X and the budget-friendly digital-only Series S, continues to thrive, fueled by the ever-expanding Game Pass subscription service. Many Xbox exclusives launch directly onto Game Pass, ensuring broad accessibility.
Recent years have delivered a wealth of exceptional games, particularly within the open-world genre. 2022 saw the release of critically acclaimed titles like Elden Ring, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, A Plague Tale: Requiem, and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, each offering a unique gaming experience. 2023 continued this trend with hits such as Dead Space, Street Fighter 6, Hi-Fi Rush, Remnant 2, Forza Motorsport, and Lies of P. 2024 also brought major releases like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. But what exciting titles await us in 2025?
This list focuses on North American release dates for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One games, including expansions.
Updated January 8, 2025: New game announcements have been relatively slow so far this year, but we anticipate a gradual increase in reveals. Several upcoming Xbox games were recently added to our calendar, including Agatha Christie: Death On The Nile, Vanity Fair: The Pursuit, Mineral, and Professor Doctor Jetpack.
