With October now among us, new titles are coming over to join the Xbox Game Pass October 2022 lineup. Here’s everything coming to Xbox Game Pass in October.

Microsoft’s subscription service is a way for gamers to explore a variety of fantastic categories without buying the game on its own. It’s ideal for anyone who wants to explore and broaden their horizons without paying for each game separately.

September 2022 saw a successful line-up with Disney Dreamlight Valley, Deathloop, and Let’s Build a Zoo joining the fray of the platform. October looks just as promising with its upcoming additions. Here’s everything we know of that will be coming to Xbox Game Pass in October.
