Every Game Coming to Xbox Game Pass in December 2024

December 3, 2024 / Kevin harson /

We’re in the final month of 2024, with just a few short weeks until the new year is upon us, but that hasn’t stopped Microsoft from offering one last batch of games on its subscription service. As happens every month, the company has announced a new batch of games coming to Xbox Game Pass in December 2024.

Every month, Microsoft adds a host of games to its Game Pass subscription service — usually split up into two batches of announcements, one at the start of the month and one at the midway point. Some of these games are smaller, lower-budget (but still great) indie titles, while some of them are massive triple-A games like GTA V, Call of Duty, and more. No matter what your gaming tastes are, there’s usually something on offer on Game Pass.

Last month’s Game Pass additions included games like Stalker 2, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, and the Spyro Reignited Trilogy — a big month for the service on both Xbox and PC. November isn’t hitting quite as hard just yet, but there are a few big hitters on the list, including some day one games for Game Pass Ultimate and PC subscribers that fans have been looking forward to for quite some time.

With that said, here’s every game coming to Xbox Game Pass in December 2024.

Xbox Game Pass New Games – December 2024

The first half of December for Game Pass is dominated by a first-party title, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, which launches in just a few days. Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is also headed to the service tomorrow, which is a fun addition — and a timely one at that, given the 30th anniversary of the PlayStation is this week. There are a few lovely indies in there, too, like Road 96, Carrion, and Wildfrost, all of which are worth checking out if you haven’t already.

Indiana Jones is the headlining act in December’s Game Pass additions, but there are plenty more titles on offer.

Xbox Game Pass Games Leaving – December 2024

Unfortunately, nothing lasts forever, and as Microsoft adds titles to Game Pass, it also takes some away. This month, Amnesia: The Bunker, Rise of the Tomb Raider, BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle, and Lego 2K Drive, among many others, are getting the boot, but you can pick them up at a 20% discount before they go if you want to keep playing.

Forza Horizon 4 will also be delisted from both Game Pass and all other digital storefronts, as announced earlier in the year, as it reaches the end of its availability period.

Here are the games leaving Game Pass in December 2024:
