Xbox Game Pass Starts 2025 With UFC 5, Diablo on PC, and More

2025 has arrived! Here’s wishing you a Happy New Year and more! To kick off the new year, there are some exciting new Xbox Game Pass titles on the horizon. Just a heads up, though: Some games will be joining the standard Xbox Game Pass tier, while Road 96, which is now accessible via Game Pass as of today, is an older title that’s returning to the Game Pass library.

If the idea of a road trip generated by a process doesn’t spark your interest, you can step into the octagon next week for a fight in EA Sports UFC 5, or immerse yourself in the farming adventure of Lightyear Frontier, the charming life simulator My Time at Sandrock, and the open-world RPG/base-builder Robin Hood – Sherwood Builders, all of which will be added to Game Pass Standard.

As a gamer, I can tell you that with PC Game Pass, I can step right back into the world where it all began – the original Diablo game, available from January 14th. On the other hand, if you’ve ever fancied yourself as a sushi chef, you could be running your own shop in Rolling Hills instead!

However, don’t forget that come January 15th, some games like Exoprimal, Escape Academy, Those Who Remain, and Insurgency: Sandstorm will no longer be part of Game Pass.
