It’s a new month, and that means we have a new batch of games coming to Xbox Game Pass, Microsoft’s own Netflix-like games subscription service. Microsoft’s own first-party games come to Game Pass on day one, along with a few games from third-party developers, but most games come to the service a few months or years after they’re first released.

Last month saw a wide range of interesting games come to Game Pass, including Resident Evil 3, Tales of Arise, Indivisible, and Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, among many others. This month we have a couple of high profile games, some smaller, licensed games, and a day one early access game. We also have Diablo 4, one of the first Activision Blizzard games to be added to the service since Microsoft's acquisition of the publisher.

Here’s every game coming to Xbox Game Pass in March 2024.

Xbox Game Pass New Games – March 2024

The first half of March sees a nice little collection of new games on Game Pass, both on Xbox and on PC. We’ve got Control Ultimate Edition from Remedy Entertainment, No More Heroes 3, and just to round things out, SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated. There’s also a day one Game Preview, which is what Xbox calls early access, for Lightyear Frontier.

The second half is a little bigger, with the addition of Diablo 4, Evil West, Open Roads, Ark: Survival Ascended, and Superhot: Mind Control Delete, all pretty big games.

Xbox Game Pass Games Leaving – March 2024

As is tradition, Game Pass giveth and Game Pass taketh away. As games are added to the service, some are taken away each month, too. As per usual, only a few games are leaving, and curiously enough, while Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 is coming to Game Pass, the first Hot Wheels Unleashed game is leaving. Funny how that happens. MLB The Show, a Sony game, is also getting the boot at the end of the month.

Here are the games leaving Game Pass in March 2024:

March 15, 2024

  • Hardspace: Shipbreaker (Cloud, Console, and PC)

  • Shredders (Cloud, Console, and PC)

March 31, 2024

  • Hot Wheels Unleashed (Cloud, Console, and PC)

  • Infinite Guitars (Cloud, Console, and PC)

  • MLB The Show 23 (Cloud and Console)
