Microsoft announces the first wave of the December 2024 Xbox Game Pass lineup, which includes five new titles and several XGP Standard additions.

Xbox giveth and Xbox taketh away. November saw some big names come to the Game Pass subscription service, like Stalker 2, Flight Simulator 2024, and Aliens: Dark Descent, but December sees some some real bangers removed. One of them— Forza Horizon 4 —is even worse affected, entering the misery of a storefront delisting.

Game Pass Standard subscribers can now race over 500 real-world cars across different environments and famous race tracks, like Daytona International Speedway and Laguna Seca Raceway. Dynamic time of day and weather conditions add more challenges to each race and ensure that no two races are the same.

Microsoft has announced the games coming to Xbox Game Pass in December 2024, headlined by Indiana Jones and the Great Circle but also including the likes of Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is the highly anticipated release from Wolfenstein developer MachineGames and is Indy's first proper foray into the video game space.

Fans should prioritize the games they want to play before they're gone.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Forza Motorsport and more awesome titles are part of the new additions coming to Xbox Game Pass this month.

A total of 6 additional games will leave on December 31. The list includes BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle, Humankind, LEGO 2K Drive, Party Animals, and more. In total, Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass will lose 13 games this month. Below is the list of titles leaving at the end of December:
