Here we go! Microsoft has today unveiled the next batch of titles coming to Xbox Game Pass in early August - and we have some big games here including the latest Activision Blizzard drop with Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy.
Here's details on when Crash arrives, alongside the rest of the early August lineup so far:
Date |
Game |
Platforms |
|---|---|---|
| August 7 | Creatures Of Ava | Xbox Series X|S, PC, Cloud |
| August 8 | Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy | Console, PC, Cloud |
| August 13 | Mafia: Definitive Edition | Console, PC, Cloud |
Alongside these new arrivals, we also have four games leaving the service in mid-August, including 2023's The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Shadow Warrior 3: Definitive Edition. You've got just over a week to get stuck into those before they depart.
This is a nice little update, then, with the arrival of our next big ActiBlizz game here - and we're already looking forward to our next batch of August arrivals for the back half of the month. Bring 'em on!
Which of these Xbox Game Pass titles are you most looking forward to? Tell us down below.

Nothing for me so far, but that's okay. Big backlog.
At this point it looks like they're even spacing out the old actibliz games to spruce up the sub lol
Good games but let’s hope the second half is better…
That said I still have a ton to work through from the massive amount of games last month.
Realistically I don't have time to play more than Ava and some backlog, but that is a disappointing couple of weeks. Crash is nice, but it's a constant sale item, a dated remaster of dated games that should be considered back catalog anyway after the acquisition, not a new drop. Mafia, I have no idea, but seems like a similar case of dated remaster always on sale - maybe I am wrong, as I have no interesti n the franchise so they blur together. I was hoping for a fun surprise, like Pepper Grinder day 1 availability. But Ava is still a win, was looking forward to it
Mafia and Crash are essential, if you haven't played them yet, don't miss them.
I haven't played a Crash game since 2 way back near it's original release. Looking forward to this one.
Quakecon 8-11th August?….Quake III Arena remaster as a showdowdrop?…..maybe just wishful thinking.
I'm good, own Crash and still haven't gotten around to it. Glad I'm dropping my Ultimate sub.
I own both crash and mafia so nothing for me two great games mafia is amazing!
Guessing something was worked out with Ubisoft then, given Crash is appearing on cloud too - think it's the first ABK title to do so
Looking forward to Mafia and already played the Crash trilogy on Switch. Still got Octopath 2 to finish, plus a bunch of stuff I picked up in the Nintendo E shop sale. That'll keep me more than busy.
Nothing here for me I want to play or haven't already played. Still I am not short of games I do want to play so no worries.
Loved Mafia when it first came out and the Remaster. Will definitely replay this at some point.
Are there still players on Texas Chainsaw? Thought about dropping back in that game again before it leaves.
@Cherip-the-Ripper Sadly in their eyes, probably counting them as brand new first party releases, and think it's awesome.
@GuyinPA75 yeah it's still pretty popular. They've added a few new maps and killers/survivors. I have played since day 1 and still play occasionally
Awesome. I'm hoping to finiish the MWIII campaign mode this weekend, and then I can uninstall that for space for Crash and Mafia.
I’ll pass, but that’s ok; I still have way more than enough to keep me busy!
Crash will be downloaded lots here 👍🏼
Will peak the interests of those who’s never played 👌🏼
@Feffster Quake III Arena? That game came out my first year out of college! I'm 47. Then again, they did put out Quake I and II remasters recently.
