Xbox Game Pass added 18 titles across two announcements in May 2024 and announced 14 departures in two batches, on May 15 and May 31. This is a historical record of that schedule, not a guide to what is in the service today.
May 2024 additions, by date
Xbox published two lineup posts that month. The first, dated April 30, 2024, covered the opening days of May. The second, dated May 14, 2024, covered the second half of the month and included one title scheduled for June 4. Both were written by Megan Spurr, Senior Community Lead, Xbox Game Pass, and published on Xbox Wire. The table below combines both posts into one date-ordered list.
| Date | Title | Platforms | Access notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| April 30, 2024 | Have A Nice Death | Cloud, Console, and PC | Available April 30, the first day of the announced window |
| Available now (as of the April 30 post) | Star Wars Jedi: Survivor | PC and Xbox Series X|S | Via EA Play; no specific date given |
| Available now (as of the April 30 post) | The Rewinder | Cloud, Console, and PC | No specific date given |
| May 2 | Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition | Cloud, Console, and PC | Game Pass |
| May 7 | Kona II: Brume | Cloud, Console, and PC | Game Pass |
| May 9 | Little Kitty, Big City | Cloud, Console, and PC | Day one with Game Pass |
| May 14 | Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons | Cloud, Console, and PC | Returning to the library |
| May 15 | Chants of Sennaar | Cloud, Console, and PC | Game Pass |
| May 16 | EA Sports NHL 24 | Cloud | Via EA Play |

| May 23 | Galacticare | Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S | Day one with Game Pass |
| May 23 | Hauntii | Cloud, Console, and PC | Day one with Game Pass |
| May 28 | Moving Out 2 | Cloud, Console, and PC | Game Pass |
| May 30 | Humanity | Cloud, Console, and PC | Game Pass |
| May 30 | Lords of the Fallen | Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S | Game Pass |
| June 4 (spillover) | Firework | PC | Game Pass |
| June 4 (spillover) | Rolling Hills | Cloud, Console, and PC | Day one with Game Pass |
Why the June 4 titles are not May arrivals
Firework and Rolling Hills appear in the May 14 post but are scheduled for June 4. They belong to the next month’s lineup, so count them separately if you are tallying what entered the service in May.
Platform access differed by title
Not every title worked on every platform, and the list is not uniform. Several titles were available on Cloud, Console, and PC. Others were limited to PC and Xbox Series X|S, or to Cloud alone. Three titles, EA Sports NHL 24, Immortals of Aveum, and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, arrived through EA Play rather than as standard Game Pass additions. Check the platform column rather than assuming a title’s availability on your device.
