Xbox Game Pass is set to receive its first wave of additions for November 2026, bringing a total of 12 games to the service's Ultimate tier. Among the new arrivals is Thronefall, a minimalist strategy game described as a blend of medieval management simulation and combat.

Thronefall centers on a general who uses in-game currency to construct buildings for resource generation and troop recruitment. Each in-game day concludes with players facing an enemy wave, followed by a rebuilding phase at sunrise. The game distills complex real-time strategy elements into a more streamlined experience, focusing on core economic and troop management, complemented by strong graphics and music.

Other notable titles joining Game Pass include Void/Breaker, a roguelite FPS featuring destructible environments, and Warhammer Survivors, a new entry in the popular bullet-heaven auto-shooter genre. John Carpenter's Toxic Commando, a horde shooter, and Paw Patrol: Dino World, based on the popular children's franchise, are also included.
