Xbox Game Pass April 2025 Wave 1 Lineup Unveiled by Microsoft

Author : Emily Update:Apr 14,2025

Microsoft has unveiled an exciting lineup of Xbox Game Pass titles set to join the service in the first half of April 2025. This impressive roster includes both first- and third-party games such as South of Midnight, Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition, Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition, and more. These additions promise a robust month of gaming for Xbox enthusiasts.

Detailed in a recent Xbox Wire post, the month kicks off with a bang on April 3, starting with Gearbox Software's Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition (available on Cloud, Console, and PC) across all tiers. Joining the fray on the same day are All You Need Is Help (Console), Still Wakes the Deep (Xbox Series X | S), and Wargroove 2 (Console), all accessible via Game Pass Standard. This initial wave offers plenty to keep dedicated Xbox fans engaged throughout the month. However, the excitement doesn't stop there; just five days later on April 8, South of Midnight (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X | S) and Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition (Console and PC) will be available for all Game Pass subscribers.

South of Midnight, developed by Compulsion Games, is set in the Deep South and promises an engaging folklore adventure. Microsoft's official description highlights how this game will enrich the Game Pass experience: "Explore the mythos and confront mysterious creatures of the Deep South in this modern folktale while learning to weave an ancient power to surmount obstacles and face the pain haunting your hometown." This title is anticipated to be one of Xbox’s major releases of the year.

Following closely, April 9 sees the arrival of Commandos: Origins (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X | S) for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers. The next day, on April 10, Blue Prince (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X | S) will be added to the same tiers. Rounding out the Wave 1 drops, Hunt: Showdown 1896 (PC) will be available for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers starting April 15.

In addition to the new games, Xbox Game Pass perks are also getting a refresh for the first half of April 2025. Notable perks include the Beyond the Void Bundle for The First Descendant, the Sweet Starter Pack for Candy Crush Solitaire on mobile devices, and an anniversary Seventh Serving Emote for Sea of Thieves fans. You can find the complete list of all additions to Game Pass for the first half of April below.
