Xbox Game Pass gets Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and one of the zaniest remasters in years

What you need to know

  • Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, Goat Simulator Remastered, and more are joining Xbox Game Pass later in November 2024.
  • As previously revealed, StarCraft + StarCraft 2: Campaign Collection are also joining PC Game Pass this month.
  • A handful of games are leaving the service, including two Like a Dragon! titles.

As an analyst with years of experience in the gaming industry, I must say that the latest lineup of games joining Xbox Game Pass is truly impressive. The addition of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and Goat Simulator Remastered is particularly exciting for me, as a flight sim enthusiast who also can’t resist the zany antics of goats.


Ready for more games?

The upcoming lineup for Xbox Game Pass has been revealed through Xbox Wire on Monday. Over the coming fortnight, subscribers can anticipate several first and third-party games joining the service, such as Asobo Studio and Xbox Game Studios’ Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, and an updated version of Goat Simulator that promises a more seamless experience for players to enjoy its absurd gameplay.

As an analyst, I’d put it this way: Some games from both Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass are now making their way to the standard version of Xbox Game Pass, the more affordable subscription tier that was launched earlier this year. Here’s a list of the games coming to Xbox Game Pass, along with the specific dates each title is added and which tiers or services they will be available on.

What’s leaving Xbox Game Pass on November 15?

As always, there’s a few games leaving the service soon.

Each month, games rotate out (and occasionally return) via Xbox Game Pass. If you wish to continue playing a game once it’s gone, naturally, purchasing it is your best bet. You can save money by buying games while they’re still part of Xbox Game Pass because there’s often a discount. So, if there’s a title you really want to play, make sure to grab it before it departs!
