Microsoft has announced a new wave of titles joining Xbox Game Pass throughout October 2025, expanding the subscription library with a range of major releases, indie projects, and returning favorites. The update includes the debut of Ninja Gaiden 4, the arrival of Baldur’s Gate and Baldur’s Gate II: Enhanced Editions, and several other titles launching across cloud, console, and PC platforms.
According to Xbox, Supermarket Simulator is available immediately for all Game Pass tiers, allowing players to manage and expand their own virtual grocery store. Beginning October 9, the Baldur’s Gate and Baldur’s Gate II: Enhanced Editions will arrive for PC players, marking the return of the acclaimed RPG franchise originally developed by BioWare and later updated by Beamdog.
On October 14, The Casting of Frank Stone will join the service, followed by several new day-one releases on October 15. These include Ball x Pit, a roguelite survival title, The Grinch: Christmas Adventures, and Eternal Strands, the debut action-adventure game from Yellow Brick Games. The same day will also bring He Is Coming, a roguelite auto-battler currently in Game Preview, and Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, the enhanced version of Team Ninja’s classic action title.
Later in the month, the sandbox MMO Pax Dei will be added on October 16, followed by Keeper on October 17. The latter, developed by Double Fine Productions’ Lee Petty, offers a wordless narrative about companionship and exploration. Evil West, which originally launched in 2022, will return to Game Pass on October 21. The highly anticipated Ninja Gaiden 4 will also arrive the same day as a day-one addition, representing the next installment in the long-running action series featuring protagonist Ryu Hayabusa.
