Upcoming Xbox Series X Games

As the Xbox Series X/S enjoys its latest year, Microsoft’s platform is gradually amassing a respectable library. Consoles typically do not start to flourish until the latter half of their existence, once cross-gen stops being a priority and developers can focus exclusively on crafting projects for only the most modern systems. The Xbox Series X/S has yet to reach that point, although things are moving in that direction.

The last few years have produced plenty of fantastic games, particularly in the open-world genre. Elden Ring, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, A Plague Tale: Requiem, and Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands were all good or great 2022 releases, and they offered wildly different experiences from each other. The year’s successor largely followed suit with projects like Dead Space, Street Fighter 6, Hi-Fi Rush, Remnant 2, Forza Motorsport, and Lies of P. What upcoming Xbox games are the most exciting? Which titles are expected to drop in 2024?

Please note that the focus is on the North American release dates of Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One games. Expansions will also be listed.

Updated November 6, 2024: The upcoming Xbox Series games were added to the calendar over the last couple of days: Songs Of Silence, Irem Collection Volume 2, Rage of the Dragons NEO, Divine Dynamo Flamefrit, MXGP 24: The Official Game, Steel Seed, Symphonia, Shieldwall, Elderborn, Songs of Conquest, Amedama, Rogue Waters.

Xbox Games Coming Out In November 2024

Microsoft Flight Simulator, Stalker, & More

November 2024 has some of the biggest 2024 Xbox games, including Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. The 2020 version was a legitimate system seller that showcased the impressive power of the Xbox Series X without being just a glorified tech demo. There is nothing to suggest the sequel will be anything short of brilliant.

Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake, Slitterhead, and Farming Simulator 25 are also launching in November, and they should all have something to offer. Now, admittedly, Slitterhead‘s early reception has not been stellar, but it has attracted quite a bit of positivity as well. Genshin Impact will finally make its Xbox debut, and it could end up taking over the lives of plenty of console owners.

After multiple very understandable delays, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl looks set to make its debut on November 20. The highly-anticipated survival horror game will debut directly on Game Pass.

Xbox Games Coming Out In December 2024

Marvel Rivals, Indiana Jones, & More

December is not usually a packed month in terms of video game releases, with only the first half typically including major debuts. That said, December 2024’s Xbox lineup is not bad, and that primarily comes down to Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Also launching on PC, the game will be a temporary Xbox console exclusive, allowing Game Pass players to get their hands on the franchise’s first notable project in a long time. While the first-person angle garnered some criticism, it should play to MachineGames’ strengths.

December 2024 also has Marvel Rivals, which seems set to be the next “huge” multiplayer hero shooter. Even though these types of releases do not always hit the mark, the Marvel brand should help attract an audience. Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered is also exciting.

• December 5: Entropy Survivors (XBX/S)

Xbox Games Coming Out In January 2025

Tales Of Graces, Sniper Elite, & More

January 2025 is not extremely packed with new Xbox games, but it does have a couple of exciting prospects that should keep people busy en route to February 2025’s biggest releases. Dynasty Warriors is the definition of an acquired taste, but Origins looks set to be a leap forward for the hack and slash series, particularly in terms of visuals. Hopefully, it is better than Dynasty Warriors 9.

JRPG fans can check out Tales of Graces f Remastered, which will be the first time this entry will be available on Xbox consoles. Putting aside the story and characters, Tales of Graces f‘s combat is generally regarded as a high point for not just the franchise but also the genre. Synduality: Echo of Ada is a looter shooter with an anime aesthetic and a lot of potential. Finally, Sniper Elite: Resistance should be another reliable entry in Rebellion’s series.

• January 16: Morkull Ragast’s Rage (XBX/S)
• January 17: Dynasty Warriors: Origins (XBX/S)

• January 28: Warside (XBX/S, XBO)
• January 30: Sniper Elite: Resistance (XBX/S, XBO)

Major Upcoming Xbox Games With Post-January 2025 Dates Or No Release Years

Kingdom Come, Elder Scrolls, & More

“Coming soon” can mean anything from a few months to a couple of years. Beyond Good and Evil 2 and Control 2 are just two games in development, but players will have to wait patiently to learn when these sequels will be made available to play.

There are so many exciting announced projects that will eventually come to the Xbox Series X/S, some of which have revealed very little information about themselves.

Rumored Xbox Games

Just because a project has not been officially announced doesn’t mean it cannot be discussed. Some rumored games, such as Gears 6, should happen sooner or later.

All these games are suspect to speculation and nothing more. Therefore, they should all be taken with a grain of salt.
