Xbox Game Pass has revealed the first of its November 2025 lineup. Microsoft’s in-house game distribution service adds multiple games every month in order to keep players engaged. These include both day-one releases and a selection of older games to flesh out its library.
Via Xbox Wire, Microsoft has now announced its second wave of October releases, along with its first two games for November 2025. Those are Football Manager 26 and 1000xResist, both of which come to Game Pass on November 4. Further November releases are expected to be revealed as the month goes on.

Personally, I’m most looking forward to PowerWash Simulator. It’s the ultimate in meditative gaming, giving you access to a wide variety of power washing tools, and charging you to clean as thoroughly as possible. I’ve logged countless hours in the original, often listening to audiobooks or chatting with friends in the background, as I enjoy the satisfaction of blasting away grime.
The Outer Worlds 2 has also been the subject of much conversation, being the sequel to Obsidian Entertainment’s first original action RPG since Fallout: New Vegas. It sparked controversy when its $80 price tag was initially announced, only to be walked back weeks later. Still, it’s a promising game from a storied studio, and arguably Game Pass’ biggest day-one release of the month.
Football Manager 26 also comes to Game Pass Cloud, PC, and console on November 4. The latest in football management simulation comes after Sports Interactive canceled what would’ve been the previous annual installment, Football Manager 25, to focus on the development of 26. Needless to say, all eyes are on Football Manager 26, with expectations of some serious changes to the series formula.
You’ll also be able to get lost in the critically acclaimed storytelling of 2024’s 1000xResist this November. Bounty Star, which blends mech customization with base building, is also an intriguing premise. Roguelite fans will also have plenty to delve into this month, with Super Fantasy Kingdom and Halls of Torment coming on October 24 and 28, respectively.
Game Pass’ November Lineup Is Decent, But Does It Justify The Price Increase?
Game Pass Has A Lot To Prove
On October 1, Microsoft announced price increases for basically every tier of Game Pass. That means that November 2025 is, for many players, the first month they can expect to pay more for the service, unless they’ve paid for Game Pass codes well in advance.
The November lineup has a handful of games I’m interested in, and I suspect I’m not alone in that regard. However, it’s a little lackluster compared to other recent months. September had Hollow Knight: Silksong, October has Ninja Gaiden 4, but November doesn’t quite have that must-play day-one release, unless you’re a holding out for Black Ops 7.
That said, we’ll have to see what the rest of November brings. Xbox Game Pass still has a chance to justify its price increase.
