Xbox Game Pass experienced an incredible April 2025. 13 exciting games were added, featuring big new titles like South of Midnight, Oblivion Remastered, and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
Interestingly, popular titles like Grand Theft Auto 5 and indie staples like Blue Prince also returned, making it one of the best months in history for subscribers.
With these incredible launches, everyone's attention is now on Xbox Game Pass May 2025. There are some new games already in the bag, including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Doom: The Dark Ages.
Gadinsider has got you a sneak peek at the top Game Pass wish list for May 2025.
Capcom Fighting Collection 2
Launched on May 16, 2025, Capcom Fighting Collection 2 brings back eight classic arcade games. The collection includes hits like Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper, Capcom vs. SNK, and Power Stone 1 and 2. Enthusiasts of fighting games would love to have this set part of Xbox Game Pass May 2025.
Elden Ring
One of the largest action-RPGs ever, Elden Ring could be a front-page highlight if it arrives with Game Pass. As Elden Ring Nightreign is arriving later this year, introducing the original game now would give newcomers a chance to experience its huge open world and edge-of-seat boss fights.
World of Warcraft
Earlier this year, a mistake in an email suggested that World of Warcraft is coming to Xbox Game Pass. While Microsoft poured cold water over it, fans still fantasise about this legendary MMORPG on the Game Pass wish list for May 2025.
Animal Well
Animal Well is a fantastic indie game that critics love. It offers a colourful, maze-filled world with secrets aplenty. Adding it to Xbox Game Pass May 2025 may introduce it to even more players and make it an indie star that everyone wants to play.
