Microsoft's post Xbox line It was hinted that this was the full lineup for December 2025, but that's only until December 11th. “We hope you have a great holiday season in December,” Microsoft said. “May your batteries always be charged, your games always end with GG, and your next game always be perfect waiting for you. We’ll be back in early 2026 to talk about what’s coming soon! Cheers!”

However, this leaves the door open for a potential Game Pass Shadowdrop, if next week's Game Awards holds any surprises.

As always, there are a number of games leaving Game Pass this month. You can save up to 20% on your purchase to keep them in your library.
