As usual at this time of year, Xbox has already started preparing the ground with some releases ready to accompany the first days of the month. And the feeling is that this will only be the beginning of what could be a very strong end to the year for those who are part of the service.

Xbox Game Pass in December: first confirmed games

For now, these are the games we have confirmed for the last month of the year, but we can already tell you that there are more games on the way, and this is just a small appetizer, albeit a high-quality one:

The first confirmed premiere arrives on December 4 with Routine, a science fiction project with retro-futuristic touches developed by Lunar Software and published by Raw Fury. It’s the studio’s debut and has been in development for over ten years since it was first announced in 2012. After being shown again in 2022, many players have been waiting for its evolution, and now there’s not much left to discover it on both console and PC through Xbox Game Pass.

A few days later, on December 9, Dome Keeper lands, a title with base defense and exploration that combines action with roguelite touches. It arrives after receiving a very positive reception on Steam in recent years, with thousands of reviews that have positioned it as a very solid proposal for short or long sessions, ideal for these holiday dates.
