As we approached the end of a somewhat sluggish start to the year, Xbox Game Pass put the pedal to the metal with a promising selection. The last week of January didn’t disappoint, surprising subscribers with the sudden release of Ninja Gaiden 2 Black and an impressive lineup featuring games such as Eternal Strands, Sniper Elite: Resistance, and Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector, all making their debut right on the service.
As we look forward to February, however, things appear a bit sparse, with just a couple of titles lined up so far. Kicking off the month with Far Cry New Dawn should be a good start, and there’s high hope that Obsidian’s Avowed will make a significant splash when it arrives on February 18. Yet, to maintain the momentum, it would be beneficial for Xbox Game Pass to add a few more titles to February’s roster.
### Xbox Game Pass Wish List for February 2025: Thank Goodness You’re Here!
Although it didn’t get much spotlight during The Game Awards, Thank Goodness You’re Here! turned heads last year with its quirky humor, sharp writing, and seamless blend of gameplay and comedy. Crafted by the Yorkshire indie studio Coal Supper, the game puts players into the shoes of a tiny traveling salesman navigating a vividly odd Northern English town filled with eccentric characters.
Currently absent from the Xbox lineup, there’s no word yet on when or if this gem will arrive. Still, it seems tailor-made for Xbox Game Pass, providing what could be a perfect fit for the subscription service.
### Xbox Game Pass Wish List for February 2025: Civilization 6
Come February 11, the freshly anticipated installment in the beloved Civilization series is set to make its debut on consoles and PC. Although the chances of Civilization 7 appearing on Xbox Game Pass soon seem slim, a strategic move might be for Firaxis to roll out Civilization 6 on the service early in the month. This would serve as an excellent opportunity for newbies to familiarize themselves with the series before they dive into the revamped mechanics in Civilization 7.
### Xbox Game Pass Wish List for February 2025: Kingdom Come: Deliverance
On a similar note, the highly anticipated Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 arrives on February 4. Since its 2018 release, the original game cultivated a devoted fanbase with its historical accuracy and role-playing depth. Despite its acclaim, the Kingdom Come series still has a niche following; thus, debuting the first game on Xbox Game Pass could help introduce it to a wider audience. This could potentially lead to increased interest and sales for the sequel.
### Xbox Game Pass Wish List for February 2025: Elden Ring
Long awaited by fans, seeing Elden Ring finally make its way to Xbox Game Pass would be a wonderful addition, especially three years after its original release. While Elden Ring has already garnered a massive fanbase, adding it to Xbox Game Pass could further broaden its reach, setting the stage perfectly ahead of Elden Ring Nightreign’s release later this year.
