Xbox Game Pass adds another game similar to Vampire Survivors

Hall of torment joined the Xbox Game Pass content catalog. The The surviving vampires-like title marks the 65th new addition to the service for October 2025, as well as the 187th Xbox Game Pass release since the turn of the year.

Developed by German studio Chasing Carrots, Hall of torment is a retro-style action roguelike focused on survival of the horde. Although this makes it likely that they will reach out The surviving vampires fans, it's much more than just a clone of Poncle's 2022. Specifically, it offers robust RPG mechanics with an abundance of gear and build options that wouldn't look out of place in a modern hack 'n slash RPG in spirit Diablo 4. This formulation resonated with reviewers, as reflected in Hall of torment“Mighty” rating on OpenCritic, based on an average score of 85 and a (rare) 100% recommendation rate. Its player impressions are comparatively favorable, with the game boasting over 20,000 “overwhelmingly positive” Steam user reviews as of October 2025, 13 months after its release.

Halls of Torment is now available on 3 levels of Xbox Game Pass

Hall of torment It hit Microsoft's subscription service on October 28. Not being a one-day title, the action roguelike Chasing Carrots launched on all non-basic levels of Xbox Game Pass: PC, Premium, and Ultimate. Although it doesn't have an Xbox One port, Hall of torment can be experienced on Microsoft's latest generation console through Xbox Cloud Gaming, which expanded to all tiers of service except PC Game Pass in late August 2025.

Hall of torment is the first title ever developed or published by Chasing Carrots to come to Xbox Game Pass. Therefore, there is no precedent for estimating how long he can remain in the service. Most arrivals stay as part of Microsoft's on-demand content catalog for at least a year. The Xbox Game Pass debut for the roguelike coincides with the launch of a new free update that has been testing on the beta branch since October 14th. The patch adds a Bard character, balancing improvements and bug fixes, among other new features. The game's first ever DLC –Boglandswhich features a new stage, two new heroes and over 50 quests – is also available for purchase starting today.

Hall of torment not the first The surviving vampires-as a game that will reach the subscription service of Microsoft, as in the last few weeks Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor arrived on Xbox Game Pass already in mid-September. Newer launch Super fantasy kingdomwhich arrived on October 24, is a building roguelike at heart, but with a tower defense loop that might appeal to survivalist fans.
