It’s time! In a news release on Tuesday, May 19, Microsoft announced the latest hit video games to land on its XBOX Game Pass platform. The subscription-based service’s offerings change routinely, with bimonthly “waves” bringing new games to the platform and retiring others.
Among the platform’s biggest perks is its Day-One arrivals; XBOX Game Pass frequently brings brand-new triple-A titles to subscribers on launch day, ensuring no player is late to the party. With this wave, the highly anticipated blockbuster Forza Horizon 6 is coming to XBOX Game Pass. Speed through breathtaking Tokyo landscapes with drivers worldwide without FOMO.
“For those of you that haven’t jumped in with early access yet, today we welcome you to Japan with Forza Horizon 6,” XBOX Game Pass Community Lead Megan Spurr teases in Tuesday’s news release. “You have so many driving adventures ahead of you (and adventures out of the driver’s seat in many more games coming to XBOX Game Pass). Grab your driving gloves, your controllers, and your mice, and let’s jump into the games.”
Without further ado, check out the XBOX Game Pass arrivals for May 2026 Wave 2:
