In the last days of October, Xbox Game Pass is gearing up to receive a wave of games that many consider essential. Three very different titles, but with a common denominator: the backing of top-tier studios and a fanbase eagerly awaiting them. The best part: all of them will be available at no extra cost with Game Pass Ultimate from the same day of their release.

With proposals ranging from the most frenetic action to sci-fi RPGs or the most experimental interactive art, October will end with a selection that leaves a mark. Here we tell you when and how they arrive. If you’re one of those who likes to look ahead, don’t miss the rest of the games that are coming to Xbox Game Pass in 2026.

Three essential games arrive on Xbox Game Pass between October 17th and 29th

• October 17th – Keeper

A new work by Double Fine that bets on artistic expression above words. Keeper puts us in command of a living lighthouse on a remote island. There are no dialogues, but a unique visual design, environmental puzzles, and a melancholic atmosphere with a strong symbolic charge. A highly anticipated debut within the most promising indies of the year.

• October 21st – Ninja Gaiden 4

The return of Ryu Hayabusa marks the return of a legendary saga. This installment is not a reboot, but a direct continuation of the classic legacy of Team Ninja, with dizzying action, demanding combat, and a completely new story. Ideal for those who seek true challenges in a hack & slash from the old school.

• October 29th – The Outer Worlds 2

Obsidian resumes its science fiction universe with a much more ambitious RPG adventure, which includes new planets, more complex moral systems, and decisions with real weight on the development. All this while maintaining the sarcastic and sharp tone that made the first title a modern classic. A perfect end-of-month treat for RPG lovers.
