Xbox has revealed the next wave of titles heading to Game Pass across console, PC, handheld, and cloud streaming platforms.

Highlighting the upcoming schedule is the early access multiplayer beta for Gears of War: E-Day, running from August 6 to August 10. The test is exclusive to players who have pre-ordered the title or maintain an active subscription to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass.

Among the full releases joining the catalog are Date Everything! and Cricket 26, alongside the fully destructible world exploration title Sandustry, which enters Game Preview as a day-one addition for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is currently priced at $22.99 / £16.99 per month (reduced from $29.99 / £22.99), while PC Game Pass sits at $13.99 / £10.99 per month (reduced from $16.49 / £13.49).
