As of now, Microsoft has officially confirmed just two major titles for the Xbox Game Pass August 2025 lineup. While the company typically announces new additions every fortnight, early reveals of day-one releases help subscribers anticipate what's coming next. Thanks to these previews, fans already have a clear picture of late July's offerings, even before the formal announcement.

For instance, subscribers can look forward to Abiotic Factor arriving on July 22, followed by Wheel World on July 23. The highly anticipated soulslike Wuchang: Fallen Feathers joins the service on July 24, while the early access version of Grounded 2 debuts on July 29. It's important to note that these day-one releases are exclusive to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members - a policy likely to extend to August's upcoming titles as well.

The August 2025 lineup currently features two significant releases, both being enhanced versions of previously available games. Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 Enhanced arrives on August 12, followed by Gears of War: Reloaded on August 26.

Confirmed Xbox Game Pass August 2025 Titles

• Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 Enhanced - August 12
• Gears of War: Reloaded - August 26

Hellblade 2 Enhanced introduces several major improvements including a Performance Mode, the return of Dark Rot Mode from the original game, expanded photo mode features, and developer commentary. While these additions might not entice players who've already completed the game, newcomers will experience a significantly enhanced version compared to the original release.

Gears of War: Reloaded represents a comprehensive remaster of the groundbreaking original. While the classic version remains playable through backward compatibility, this remaster delivers substantial visual and performance upgrades that justify revisiting Sera's battlefields. Notably, it includes the fan-favorite multiplayer mode, adding substantial replay value to the package.
