Xbox Gaming has been escalated to a new height with the Xbox Subscription service. This service provides players free access to a wide range of games across Xbox platforms.
Every month new games join this service and older ones leave it. This July the Xbox Game Pass will get Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 and others on this paid service.
At the same time, a few titles are also leaving the Game Pass, including The Callisto Protocol, Tchia, and others.
It’s July and it’s time for Xbox gamers to check the new gaming lineup for Xbox Game Pass. The first wave of additions include multiple highly-renowned titles. However, at the same time, it’s time to say goodbye to a few beloved games. Like every month, Microsoft is ready to replace some of the Xbox Game Pass titles with new ones.
Subscription services have gained massive attention in the last few years. Whether it’s the PS Plus or Xbox Game Pass or PC Game Pass, gamers can now enjoy massively successful titles without paying for them, if they have the subscriptions active.
Interestingly, every month these subscription services replace games with new titles to make the experience engaging. So, here’s what Xbox Game Pass subscribers can get this month:
Microsoft has officially revealed the Xbox Game Pass lineup for July 2025. The games that are joining this month are pretty satisfying and highly engaging. From chilling horror experiences to skateboarding classics, this month, Xbox’s subscription service has prepared a range of games to satisfy various gamers’ cravings:
Little Nightmares II and Rise of the Tomb Raider have joined Ultimate, PC, and Standard tiers of the Game Pass. These games offer atmospheric storytelling and action‑adventure thrills.
July 2 has added Legend of Mana and Trials of Mana to Xbox Series X/S, Ultimate, Standard, and PC Game Pass, offering an impressive remastered JRPG classic experience.
July 3 introduced the quirky party-platformer Ultimate Chicken Horse across Ultimate, PC, and Standard tiers.
July 8 has prepared The Ascent for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, This game takes players to a neon‑lit cyberpunk city to explore.
On July 9, a cozy Japan-based simulator, Minami Lane, will join the Ultimate and PC Game Pass.
That’s not the end. The entire July has multiple games joining the Game Pass. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 will join this subscription service on July 11; On July 15, High on Life will arrive on the Game Pass.
Further, Grounded 2 will come on July 29, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, a dark-fantasy Soulslike, will come on Game Pass on July 24, and Shadow Labyrinth, a Pac-Man inspired game coming on the subscription service on July 18.
This month’s additions offer something for everyone. Whether one is into a terrifying horror experience, or adventurous exploration, or skateboarding nostalgia, Xbox Game Pass has arranged every type of game to add value.

The Case of the Golden Idol
This list shows a significant mix of genres. From open-world adventures to hardcore survival, puzzle-solving, and crime narrative, Xbox is bidding goodbye to all. There’s still time for players to dive into these games for free, before they leave all the Xbox subscription services on July 15.
July 2025 is going to be an exciting month for Xbox Game Pass subscribers. Ranging from fresh arrivals to classics, this month has a long gaming lineup joining the service throughout the month. No matter what you prefer, these games offer the best experiences of every genre. Still, if you are confused, it’s better to choose games based on your preferences and skills.
Finally, the games leaving Xbox Game Pass don't leave the Xbox Store. So, those who haven’t tried them all can get them from the Xbox Store. It’s just that these games can’t be accessible for free after July 15.
