Microsoft is all-in on its Xbox Game Pass subscription service, doing everything it can to bolster the lineup with high quality day one releases, major third-party titles, and other perks. Xbox Game Pass was front and center at the Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase, with Microsoft highlighting a wide range of games that will be added to Game Pass within the next 12 months.
Prior to the Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase, a new day one game coming to Xbox Game Pass was quietly confirmed for August 2022. Turbo Golf Racing is coming to Xbox Game Pass on August 4 through the Xbox Game Preview program, meaning it will be available to Game Pass subscribers as an early access game. Turbo Golf Racing, it should be pointed out, is just one of the new Xbox Game Pass games for August 2022 that has been confirmed so far.
There's another new game confirmed for Xbox Game Pass in August 2022, and that's Two Point Campus, launching August 9. Two Point Campus is the latest game in the Two Point series, which also includes the popular Two Point Hospital. Two Point Campus offers similar gameplay as Two Point Hospital, but instead of running a hospital, Two Point Campus has players running a college campus. Two Point Campus looks promising for fans of simulation games, so it will be interesting to see if it lives up to expectations.
New Xbox Game Pass Games for August 2022
- Turbo Golf Racing - August 4
- Two Point Campus - August 9
- Midnight Fight Express - August 23
Besides Turbo Golf Racing and Two Point Campus, Xbox Game Pass subscribers also have Midnight Fight Express to look forward to starting August 23. Whereas Turbo Golf Racing blends sports and vehicles ala Rocket League, Midnight Fight Express is a stylish action game with over-the-top violence. All three games should make interesting additions to the Xbox Game Pass lineup come August 2022, especially since they are all brand-new, day one releases.
Of course, these three games are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the new Xbox Game Pass games for August 2022. Microsoft doesn't reveal all the new games coming to Xbox Game Pass in any given month until that month arrives, so Game Pass subscribers still have some time before they'll learn about the full lineup.
In the more immediate future, Xbox Game Pass subscribers should learn about the rest of the new Xbox Game Pass games for June 2022, as well as the games coming to the service in July 2022. There should be no shortage of Game Pass games to check out while they wait for more info on what's coming in the future.
