Xbox Game Pass is adding six new titles to the rotating library later this month and going into April, and the latest additions are especially great for sports fans. The Game Pass offerings change every single month, rotating older titles for new entries, allowing for new play experiences
The latest lineup is unusually themed, sticking heavily to sports games with the exception of Star Wars: Squadrons (though, that’s racing, so if you squint your eyes…). For the full lineup of what’s coming next, here’s what Xbox had to share:
What’s coming:
- Madden NFL 21, console – Available now

Interested in the Xbox Game Pass but not sure if you want to pull that trigger yet? No worries, here’s what you need to know. With the Microsoft subscription service, there are two options to choose from: the Xbox Game Pass and the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Both offer Xbox players a chance to play over 100 titles at no additional cost, including day-one launches of first-party titles.
Xbox Game Pass retails for $9.99 a month with the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate version coming in at $14.99, including Xbox Live Gold into that bundled price. It’s a solid deal, great for those that don’t care to own titles or intend to play through something more than once. It could get even better with the ZeniMax acquisition that is set in stone this month for titles under the id Software and Bethesda umbrellas.
