October was a rollercoaster month Xbox Game Pass. The month kicked off with the news that Microsoft had increased the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate by a whopping 50%, causing an understandable wave of panic in the Xbox community. But even with this dramatic price increase, it's hard to deny that Xbox Game Pass had a stellar lineup this month, with day one titles like Ball x Pit, Keeperand Ninja Gaiden 4 all hit service last week, and games like PowerWash 2 simulator and Outer worlds 2 on the way in the next few days.
After such a turbulent month, expectations are high for the November 2025 Xbox Game Pass lineup. There are currently six games confirmed for Xbox Game Pass in November: 1000x RESISTANCE, Football Manager 26, Whiskerwood, Voidtrain, Winter burrowand Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. Of course, Black Ops 7 is a heavy hitter for next month's Game Pass lineup, but could use a few more additions to bolster it.

The fighting game genre has been experiencing something of a renaissance in recent years and Tekken 8 is one of the key players in the movement. Released early last year, Tekken 8 received universal acclaim from critics and fans alike for its stellar visuals, crisp combat mechanics, and depth of content. Over the past year and a half, Tekken 8 has only gotten better, a total of 8 characters have been added to the game via DLC.
Fighting games are a bit of a rarity on Xbox Game Pass, with the only highlights now Mortal Kombat 11 and Injustice 2. Adding Tekken 8 a November 2025 Xbox Game Pass lineup would be a huge boon not just for fans of the series, but for the subscription service as a whole.

CyberpunkThe mechanics are almost perfect and add a lot of new content to the game.

Xbox Game Pass is already home to a surprising number Warhammer 40,000 games. Rogue merchant, Darktideand Space Marine – Master Crafted Edition all are available on Xbox Game Pass and all offer unique experiences in the grim world of the distant future Warhammer 40,000. But there's one 40K game sorely missing from the Xbox Game Pass library.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marines 2 was one of the biggest surprises of 2024, delivering a long-awaited sequel that not only managed to land long-time fans, but also reach an audience beyond the die-hard 40K fans. Space Marines 2 offers visceral melee combat, gory visuals, and plenty of co-op and PvP modes for friends to enjoy together, making it an ideal candidate for Xbox Game Pass in November 2025.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marines 2 was such a quick success that a sequel has already been confirmed to be in the works.

A game focused on comedy inspired The mighty Boosh and Monty Python

OpenCritic Top Critic Average Score: 85
A quintessentially British game, Thank God you're here it may not have been officially recognized at last year's Game Awards, but it's undoubtedly one of the most unique indie games of 2024. Thank God you're here is a minute-long interactive comedy hidden behind the facade of a simple adventure puzzle game that is a must-play for anyone who has ever enjoyed Monty Python, The mighty Booshand Shooting Stars.
Despite releasing last August for PlayStation, PC and even Nintendo Switch, Thank God you're here it still hasn't found its way to Xbox consoles. It would be great to see it finally make it to Xbox, and a day one launch on Xbox Game Pass could give it the second lease on life it deserves.
