Xbox has announced the second wave of Game Pass additions for July 2026, an eight-title batch that includes four day-one releases. With the earlier wave, the month's additions now total 18 — matching the number of games that left the service in July, a month in which nearly 20 titles were removed.
The largest addition is Halo: Campaign Evolved, the remake of the 2001 game that started the series, arriving on the service the day it launches. The remake ships without multiplayer, but adds three new missions to the campaign.
The other day-one titles are Beast of Reincarnation, an action RPG from Pokémon developer Game Freak; extraction fantasy RPG Mistfall Hunter; and co-operative detective game Shift at Midnight. Beast of Reincarnation is an early August release but was folded into this announcement.
The remaining four are back-catalogue additions: Hell is Us, a pared-back take on the Soulslike; pirate city-builder Corsair Cove; survival crafting game The Planet Crafter; and the Heretic and Hexen collection, which joins a couple of days into August.
