Check out all of the games coming to Xbox Game Pass this month, as there are plenty to choose from among the already stacked library.
Xbox Game Pass games this month
There's a fantastic mix of games coming to the service this month, headlined by titles like Neon White, Tchia, and The Case of the Golden Idol.
This supports the excellent selection that's already been added so far this month, giving you plenty to play if you're feeling lost - or plenty to add to that ever-growing backlog!
Games | Platforms | Date Added |
Journey to the Savage Planet | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 3 |
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 3 |
Cricket 24 | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 9 |
The Case of the Golden Idol | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 9 |
Neon White | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 11 |
Tchia | Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S | July 11 |
Magical Delicacy | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 16 |
Flock | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 16 |
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 18 |
Dungeons of Hinterberg | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 18 |
Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess | Cloud, Console, and PC | July 19 |
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 | Console and PC | July 24 |
I'd recommend giving Neon White a go, as the fast-paced first-person platforming action is exhilarating - made even better by a magnificent soundtrack too!
The Case of the Golden Idol has also been a game on my wishlist for a while, so I'm very happy that I'll get a chance to dive into the mystery when it drops onto the service this month.
For the first time in Call of Duty history, Modern Warfare 3 is making its debut on the service from July 24. This is ahead of the launch of Black Ops 6, which will also be coming to the service on day one in October.
This is just the first wave of games joining the platform in July though, so make sure to stay tuned for more updates as we work our way through the month.
In addition to these games, you can obtain a variety of perks at the moment with an Xbox Game Pass subscription. If you're curious to know what you can get, here are some of the perks on offer:
- 3 free months of YouTube Premium
- Loot for games including Sea of Thieves, Vigor, MultiVersus and more
Games leaving Game Pass in July 2024
As of the time of writing, the following are leaving on July 31, as per the Xbox blog post:
- A Short Hike (Cloud, Console, and PC)
- Train Sim World 4 (Cloud, Console, and PC)
- Venba (Cloud, Console, and PC)
Much like the games being added, there will likely be another wave announced later this month, so keep your eyes peeled just in case there's something on your backlog!
What is Xbox Game Pass? Riot Games and EA Play explained
If you're new to the Xbox ecosystem, or just Xbox Game Pass in general, the easiest way to explain the service is that it's a subscription service for games.
Depending on the tier you opt for, you'll get access to a huge number of games, potentially across both Xbox consoles, your Windows PC, and even via your phone using cloud streaming.
Naturally, it wouldn't be worth the price if the games weren't of a certain level of quality, but Microsoft does a great job of curating its library with an array of bangers.

Aside from first-party releases like Halo Infinite and Starfield, indie darlings like Celeste, and third-party games like Lies of P, there are also additional discounts available and a series of perks like the aforementioned Discord Nitro, starter packs for games like SMITE, and much more.
Perhaps my favourite perks, however, relate to Riot Games and EA.
If you link your Riot account and your Xbox Game Pass subscription, you'll unlock goodies in LoL, TFT, VALORANT, Wild Rift, and even Legends of Runeterra, which I've listed below:
![VALORANT key art showing Phoenix and Jett](/media/c5nj5itz/valorant-1jpg.jpg?mode=crop&width=682&quality=80&format=webp)
League of Legends
- All League of Legends Champions on Day One (including all 160+ released so far)
- +20% XP boost
League of Legends: Wild Rift
- All League of Legends Wild Rift Champions on Day One (including all 80+ released so far)
- +20% XP boost
Legends of Runeterra
- All cards in the Foundation set
Teamfight Tactics
- 1-Star Rare Little Legend
- 1 monthly Arena skin
VALORANT
- All Agents on Day One (including new arrival, Clove)
- +20% Match XP boost for Battle Pass and Events

On the other hand, you also get additional content from EA, including a huge array of games, and additional discounts.
That means that with EA Play included in Game Pass, you'll get access to titles like Battlefield 2042, Dead Space Remake, and the criminally underrated Wild Hearts. There's also a huge number of classic titles included, too, including the Mass Effect Trilogy, Jade Empire, Mirror's Edge and the Crysis games.
