Hades, Sworn, Visions of Mana, and More Added to Xbox Game Pass This September

Xbox has revealed the second wave of Game Pass additions for September 2025, and it is a particularly strong lineup of titles. As announced on Xbox News, several highly anticipated releases are joining the subscription service, including Hades, Visions of Mana, Sworn, and Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor.

Hades Returns Ahead of Hades II

The award-winning Hades re-enters Xbox Game Pass on September 19, giving players the perfect opportunity to revisit Zagreus’ journey through the Underworld ahead of the full launch of Hades II on September 25. This marks the first-ever sequel by developer Supergiant Games, and Microsoft’s timing ensures that players have a chance to refresh themselves with the roguelike classic before diving into its successor.

Day-One Launches: Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor and More

The spinoff Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, developed by Funday Games and published by Ghost Ship Publishing, joins the service on September 17. The auto-shooter officially exits Early Access the same day, launching day one on Game Pass.

Other major highlights include:

  • Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III on September 17 for Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.

  • Frostpunk 2, launching September 18, bringing its survival city-building chaos to the cloud and console.

  • Visions of Mana, Square Enix’s long-awaited new entry in the Mana series, arriving September 25 across all platforms.

  • Sworn, a dark fantasy action RPG, releasing September 23 on cloud, PC, and consoles.
