Next week will bring two new additions to the Xbox Game Pass catalog, with very different proposals from each other. Subscribers will be able to enjoy the return of a cooperative shooter with a science fiction setting and the premiere of a strategy title in development that will allow them to follow its evolution closely.

Both will arrive next week and will be available on different platforms within the subscription, including console, PC, and cloud, depending on the case. Let’s go with the details of each one.

New Xbox Game Pass games next week

• Aliens: Fireteam Elite (August 12) – Returns to service after having been available in the past, and it does so for console, PC, and Xbox Cloud Gaming, accessible to all Game Pass subscriptions. This cooperative third-person shooter set in the Alien universe pits you, along with your squad, against waves of xenomorphs and other deadly creatures in missions loaded with tension and teamwork.

• 9 Kings (Game Preview) (August 14) – Will arrive on PC with Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. It’s a title in early access that combines turn-based strategy and deck-building, offering tactical combat with a high level of customization and strategic decisions.

With these two additions, Game Pass continues to expand and renew its catalog, recovering experiences that already conquered many players in the past (like Aliens: Fireteam Elite) and offering new proposals like 9 Kings. August thus maintains a steady pace of news, with options for all tastes and available on all platforms of the service.
