Xbox has officially confirmed the first wave of new Xbox Game Pass games for April 2023, and there's plenty to jump into this month. Finally breaking free from its PlayStation exclusivity, Ghostwire Tokyo is making its debut on Xbox Series X|S on April 12th. But that's not all - as Xbox Game Pass members will be able to dive into the game on the same day it launches.
Game Pass also has a slew of other games set to come to the service in April, including the likes of Loop Hero on April 4, NHL 23 on April 13 and Minecraft Legends on April 18. You can see the full list of games coming to Game Pass just below, but remember, this is just the first wave for April, with another set of announcements expected in the latter half of the month.
This is everything so far confirmed to be hitting Xbox Game Pass this month. Stay tuned for more updates on the second wave of games in the last couple of weeks in April.
A major free update for Ghostwire Tokyo is also coming alongside the new release. It's called the Spider’s Thread update, and Tango Gameworks has also promised it will come with a variety of quality-of-life improvements to make players’ journeys through the haunted version of Tokyo a little smoother. This update will be released on the same day for all users (on PS5, Xbox, and PC) and adds a new game mode, extended story cutscenes, new areas, and more.
The following games will be leaving Xbox Game Pass by April 15, so get ready to say goodbye, or consider making them a permanent addition to your library.
