There are still weeks to go, but we already have some games lined up to arrive on Xbox Game Pass in January. Stay tuned, as several titles are currently slated to arrive in the first month of the year, and as is often the case, we can expect even more games to be revealed.

Microsoft has confirmed that there won’t be any new game announcements in December, and the ones arriving next week will be the last for the month. However, what we have in store for next week is brutal, so we’ll only have to endure a two-week “drought” before we find out what’s next for the service in early January. For now, we’re leaving you with the two games that have been confirmed for a January release, even if Microsoft hasn’t announced them directly – the studios themselves have made the announcements.
