Xbox has confirmed its list of upcoming titles expected to arrive on Game Pass this September – with big hitters Deathloop and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey leading the charge. Deathloop is an interesting addition, as it was previously a PS5 console exclusive (as well as one of our top games for the console).

The new line-up was announced during the Tokyo Game Show, and, as you would imagine, there are plenty of big JRPG games that players will be able to sink their teeth into as well.

Among the suite of other titles available on Game Pass this month are Disney’s Dreamlight Valley and You Suck at Parking, to name just a couple.

The games are playable on console and PC, but as new ones are added to Game Pass, older ones will be removed from the service.

To find out which games will be coming to Xbox Game Pass in September, and which ones have been removed, keep reading the rest of this article.
