Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass are now offering two new games: PowerWash Simulator 2 and Bounty Star. These very different titles are the 61st and 62nd games added to Xbox Game Pass this October.
DINOGOD, a studio based in Mesa, Arizona, created Bounty Star, a unique game that blends mech combat with robot customization, base building, and farming. You play as an experienced mech pilot who takes on bounty hunting jobs while also developing her own home. In contrast, PowerWash Simulator 2 is exactly what it sounds like – a bigger and better version of FuturLab’s popular 2022 game. Still played from a first-person view, PWS2 offers more locations, items to clean, and cleaning tools than before.
PowerWash Simulator 2 and Bounty Star Join Xbox Game Pass 1 Hour Apart
Despite being very different games, both Bounty Star and PowerWash Simulator 2 became available on Xbox Game Pass on October 23rd. Bounty Star launched at 8am Eastern Time, and PowerWash Simulator 2 followed at 9am. These releases are the 183rd and 184th games added to the service this year. Originally scheduled for today, Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault will now launch on Xbox Game Pass on November 19th.
Bounty Star and PowerWash Simulator 2 Coming to XGP Premium in 2026
New to Game Pass, Bounty Star and PowerWash Simulator 2 are currently available to play on PC and Xbox through Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate. Microsoft plans to add them to the higher Premium tier of the service sometime between April and October 2026. Until then, you can enjoy them on Xbox Series X/S, PC, or through Xbox Cloud Gaming on compatible devices. Cloud Gaming is available with all Game Pass tiers except the PC plan.
Xbox Game Pass subscribers have three new games to look forward to this October. Super Fantasy Kingdom will be available in early access on October 24th, followed by Halls of Torment on October 28th. Finally, The Outer Worlds 2, the new sci-fi action RPG from Obsidian Entertainment, is set to release on October 29th.
