Xbox Game Pass is a subscription service that gives Xbox and PC players access to an ever-evolving library of games. Typically new titles are added throughout the month, while older games are removed in two waves.

After revealing a number of new additions to the service earlier this month, Microsoft has now confirmed which titles will be added to Xbox Game Pass this April.

From today (April 15), all Xbox Game Pass subscribers will be able to play Grand Theft Auto 5 after it was previously removed from the service at the start of last year. Later this month, Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers will also be able to play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 as a Day One release.

“Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a ground-breaking turn-based RPG with unique real-time mechanics, making battles more immersive and addictive than ever. Explore a fantasy world inspired by Belle Époque France in which you battle devastating enemies,” reads the official description.

At the very end of April, the classic Far Cry 4 is coming to Xbox Game Pass while May 1 will see Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 join the service after Modern Warfare 3 was added last year.

All the games coming to Xbox Game Pass this April:

• Grand Theft Auto 5 – April 15 for Standard, Ultimate and PC subscribers
• Neon White – April 16 for Console and Ultimate subscribers
• SpongeBob SquarePants: The Patrick Star Game – April 16 for Standard, Ultimate and PC subscribers
• Crime Scene Cleaner  – April 17 for Ultimate and PC subscribers

Microsoft has also confirmed the six games that will be leaving Xbox Game Pass at the end of the month. Subscribers have until April 30 to play the following:

Have A Nice Death

Sniper Elite 5
The Last Case of Benedict Fox

In the coming months, Game Pass subscribers will get access to Doom: The Dark Ages and the recently-announced Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4. However Microsoft has also confirmed a new showcase for June 8, so expect that list to grow after the planned presentation.

In other news, Sony has confirmed the PlayStation 5 will be getting more expensive in a number of countries around the world, and fans aren’t impressed.
