In its Xbox Wire reveal the studio confirmed a November 2 Game Preview launch on Xbox Series X|S and PC, in Game Pass from day one. Worth your time if you have a regular co-op group and don’t mind an unfinished game.
Pit of Goblin (November 3)
An online horror co-op game about goblins raiding dungeons, getting its 1.0 release and Xbox launch the same day. It is the only November game so far with tiers confirmed by Xbox: Ultimate, Premium and PC Game Pass. The Microsoft Store lists the launch at 14:00 UTC.
VOID/BREAKER 1.0 (November 4)
Stubby Games’ roguelite shooter is already in Ultimate and PC Game Pass as an early access game on PC. In its October 1 announcement, Playstack said the 1.0 release on November 4 adds new weapons, bosses and levels. The same release brings the game to Xbox Series X|S and PS5. On Steam it costs $29.99.

Escape Academy 2: Back 2 School (November 5)
This sequel to the co-op puzzle game Escape Academy moves its escape rooms onto a whole new campus. Coin Crew Games set the date for November 5, and publisher iam8bit says you can preload it through Game Pass now. The Xbox store price is $19.99 if you would rather own it. It’s a good pick for couples or friends who like a shared puzzle night.
Football Manager 27 (November 10)
Sports Interactive says FM27 launches on November 10 for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass through the Xbox PC app. The console edition launches the same day and is included for Game Pass console members. You don’t have to wait for launch day: the free FM27 Launch Preview runs from October 29 at 18:00 GMT to November 3 and includes Game Pass, and Game Pass saves carry over to the full game. Our Football Manager 27 free Launch Preview guide covers how it works.

Warhammer Survivors (November 10)
Auroch Digital (Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun) is making this game with poncle, the studio behind Vampire Survivors. It is a fast bullet-hell roguelite starring characters from Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar. Auroch’s release date announcement includes Xbox Game Pass, and the game costs $7.99 if you buy it. A demo is already available on Steam.
Thronefall (November 11)
Mythwright’s minimalist strategy game has you build a small kingdom by day and defend it by night. It has been on PC since 2024 and is $12.99 on Steam. Mythwright confirmed that it comes to Xbox Series X|S and Game Pass on November 11. The Craaghelm expansion releases the same day as paid DLC, so it is not part of Game Pass. This is the cozy-ish pick of the month: short runs that are easy to learn.
What’s leaving Game Pass in November 2026
So far, Xbox Wire has named only one departure for November. Football Manager 26 (PC) and Football Manager 26 Console Edition (cloud, console and PC) leave on November 10, the day FM27 arrives. Nine games already leave on October 31, including Deep Rock Galactic and Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. They are all listed in our guide to games leaving Game Pass on October 31.
