Xbox Game Pass New Games for October 2024 Wish List

Xbox Game Pass New Games for October 2024 Wish List

Key Takeaways

  • Xbox Game Pass could use more titles in October beyond Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
  • Neva and A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead are potential additions to Xbox Game Pass for October.
  • Silent Hill: HD Collection could be a good consolation for Xbox players missing out on Silent Hill 2 Remake, too.

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and trepidation as we approach October for Xbox Game Pass. On one hand, the confirmed lineup seems to be shaping up quite nicely, with the juggernaut that is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 leading the charge. However, with just one game confirmed so far, I’m left wondering if the service will be able to keep its momentum going.


So far, September has been a promising month for the Xbox Game Pass service, starting off strong with titles like Age of Mythology: Retold and Star Trucker, followed by the strategic masterpiece Frostpunk 2, and soon, Ara: History Untold for PC subscribers. However, it remains to be seen if this positive trend will carry over into October for Xbox Game Pass.

For its October 2024 schedule, Xbox Game Pass currently only has one title confirmed: “Call of Duty: Black Ops 6”. However, it’s essential to note that even blockbuster games like this can’t sustain an entire month of Xbox Game Pass offerings alone. To provide a more diverse and engaging experience for its subscribers, Xbox Game Pass is likely looking to add additional titles in October. This becomes especially important when considering that PlayStation has several console exclusives lined up for release in the upcoming month.

Neva

Release Date: October 15

The anticipated follow-up game from Nomada Studio, creators of Gris, titled Neva, is scheduled for release on October 15. This title would undoubtedly be a noteworthy addition to the Xbox Game Pass library on its launch day. In Neva, the captivating watercolor art style seen in Gris is employed once more, this time to tell another poignant story centered around a woman and her profound connection with a mystical wolf throughout her life. With its engaging gameplay and emotional narrative, Neva appears to be one of the most intriguing Indie games set for release in October, and its potential audience could grow even larger through Game Pass.

A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead

Release Date: October 17

As we edge closer to October, I can feel the excitement brewing – it’s almost time for the Spooky Season! And with that comes a perfect opportunity for Xbox Game Pass to beef up its collection with some spine-tingling horror games. Mark your calendars for October 17 because that’s when A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead is set to drop, bringing a first-person horror adventure inspired by the famous movie franchise. In this game, you’ll find yourself navigating through diverse landscapes, treading carefully to keep the silence and avoid attracting the Death Angels that lurk nearby. Any misstep could mean doom!

[REDACTED]

Release Date: October 31

In a similar vein to the 2022 Sci-Fi horror game “The Callisto Protocol,” the upcoming title, which we cannot disclose at this time, is an isometric roguelike shooter that places players in the shoes of a Black Iron prison guard amidst a zombie outbreak. This game showcases a graphic novel-like art style, a fast-paced “arcade-punk” soundtrack, and a variety of building structures. If you’ve grown tired of the early access period for “Hades 2” but are still craving fast-paced roguelike action, this unnamed game might be your next fix. It would be fantastic if it were to join Xbox Game Pass in October.

Silent Hill: HD Collection

Available Now

Among the major releases slated for October 2024, one highly anticipated title is the remake of Bloober Team’s “Silent Hill 2”. Unfortunately, this “Silent Hill 2 Remake” will only be available for PC and PlayStation 5 upon its release, leaving Xbox players in a scary predicament, as they might miss out on what could potentially be the best horror game to celebrate Halloween. To lessen the disappointment, it’s possible that Xbox Game Pass may include “Silent Hill: HD Collection” this October instead, allowing Xbox users an opportunity to experience both “Silent Hill 2” and “3”. However, it should be noted that the “Silent Hill: HD Collection” has received mixed reviews due to its debatable voice acting and graphics. Nevertheless, for “Silent Hill” enthusiasts on Xbox, this is currently their only option.
