Xbox Game Pass hosts a myriad of old and new titles in June 2025. We will list the best 5 of them in this article.
The Xbox Game Pass is Microsoft and Xbox’s service that allows you to enjoy hundreds of games with a subscription fee. Unlike the conventional way, which is buying video games at their full or discounted price through various offline and digital stores, the Game Pass provides a great alternative for gamers with a limited budget. However, instead of owning your games permanently like you do in Steam or Epic Games Store, you will only have partial ownership of titles you download with a Game Pass.
Furthermore, these games will only be available as long as you have an active subscription plan. Still, the Xbox Game Pass is a great way of experiencing old titles and discovering new ones. So, if you are confused regarding what to play next, don’t worry. We have listed the best 5 games on the Game Pass in June 2025 in this article.
5 Best Games on the Xbox Game Pass in June 2025
The Xbox Game Pass hosts a myriad of video games. In Xbox’s vast library, you will find titles from various genres such as racing, survival, RPG, and simulation. You will also get games that span from AAA stature to classic indie titles. So, with so many options and various games coming and going, it is quite easy to get confused regarding what to play with your Xbox Game Pass subscription. To help you out, we have listed our best 5 recommendations below.
5. Hollow Knight
Hollow Knight is a critically acclaimed Metroidvania title that was first released back in 2017. Despite being 8 years old, this indie game holds up extremely well in 2025 thanks to its beautiful and creative art direction and engaging gameplay. In the game, you will be exploring a place called the Hollownest, a kingdom ruined by a supernatural pandemic.
Throughout your playthrough, you will explore various subterranean locations as well as meet numerous NPCs and fight bosses. As you progress further, you will unlock new skills and learn more about the game’s lore little by little. We have listed Hollow Knight in this guide because June 2025 is a great time to try the game out if you haven’t already, since Xbox hinted that the long-awaited sequel, Silksong, could release this year alongside the ROG Xbox Ally handheld.
4. Doom: The Dark Ages
The most feared human in gaming, Doom Slayer, makes his return to Xbox Game Pass with 2025’s Doom: The Dark Ages. The new title from id Software takes us to the lands of Argent D’Nur and explores the events that happened prior to Doom (2016). The developers often change various gameplay elements in every single Doom title, and Dark Ages is no exception. Compared to its predecessor, Dark Ages has slower and more grounded combat and little to no platforming.
However, compared to modern FPS titles, it is still quite fast. Killing demons with the various melee weapons during medieval times, while metal-inspired music inspires the Doom Slayer within you, is a well-crafted formula for entertainment. So, if you like the sound of that, you can try the game on Xbox Game Pass.
3. Rematch
Rematch is Sloclap’s latest online multiplayer sports title, and it is coming to Xbox Game Pass on June 19, 2025. This latest sports title from the developers of Sifu focuses more on arcade than simulation and prioritizes gameplay over realism. In the game, you will be able to party up with your friends or other players online and play a game of football with a team that consists of three, four, or five players.
Unlike traditional sports titles, in Rematch, you will be controlling only your individual player and not an entire team. This introduces a new way of playing that emphasizes teamwork. During the match, you will be tackling, passing, shooting, and goalkeeping in an arena enclosed with walls, and there will also be no rules such as fouls, offsides, throw-ins, or corners. If that sounds interesting to you, then you can hop into the game this month on Game Pass.
2. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 came out on April 24, 2025, and became a phenomenon. French developer Sandfall Interactive’s RPG took the gaming community by storm with its beautifully crafted world, well-written plot, emotionally engaging characters, and immaculately made soundtrack. Since the release, many have also claimed that Expedition 33 holds Game of the Year potential and is a viable candidate for 2025.
In the game, you play as a party of characters who go on a journey to stop an enigmatic entity named the Paintress. This mysterious figure appears and paints a number, which results in the death of everyone in the population whose age belongs to the same number. To stop this antagonist, you must travel to a land unknown and follow the footsteps of fallen expeditioners while battling enemies with the game’s unique real-time event-infused turn-based combat system. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is currently available on the Xbox Game Pass.
1. Resident Evil 2 (2019)
Resident Evil 2 Remake by Capcom was released in 2019 and instantly raised the standards of what defines a remake. The game was completely made from scratch on the RE Engine, yet it still held the essence of the original title. It is a relatively old game. But since Capcom has just recently announced Resident Evil Requiem for 2026, now is a great time to visit Raccoon City once again in the RE 2 remake.
In the game, you play as Leon, a police officer going to Raccoon City. Upon arrival, our protagonist realizes that zombies have invaded the Raccoon City Police Department and most of the humans are dead. From that point onward, it is up to you to use the limited resources and various survival elements in the game and make your way out of the city while avoiding various monsters. You can try Resident Evil 2 on Xbox Game Pass.
