Just seven days after its last major update, Xbox has unveiled 17 exciting new additions to its innovative 'Stream Your Own Game' program. This expansion includes a surprising entry - Gothic Classic - which hasn't even been formally announced for Xbox platforms yet. The streaming feature, available exclusively to Game Pass Ultimate members, continues to gain momentum as a popular alternative for accessing personal game libraries beyond the standard Game Pass catalog.

Fully launched in April, this groundbreaking service enables Ultimate subscribers to stream titles they've purchased but aren't currently available in the rotating Game Pass selection. The platform-agnostic solution works across devices including PCs, Xbox Series X/S consoles, VR headsets, smartphones, and Smart TVs, offering unprecedented flexibility for gaming on the go.

Discovered through Pure Xbox's reporting, the new batch of games will roll out gradually between late June and July. The lineup features diverse experiences ranging from cooperative heists in Payday 3 to tactical combat in XCOM 2, alongside acclaimed indies like Dicey Dungeons and Skul: The Hero Slayer. Notably, American Arcadia and Black Desert are already accessible for players who own these titles.
