MicrosoftΓÇÖs Game Pass is having a very impressive 2025 where the quality
and cadence of releases is concerned, and things are showing no signs of
slowing down as we settle into the summer months. Highlights of the June
lineup include co-op FPS FBC: Firebreak, which joins the service today,
SloclapΓÇÖs highly-anticipated soccer game, Rematch, and a trio of Warcraft
remasters.

LetΓÇÖs start with probably the most significant addition. Back in May,
EngadgetΓÇÖs Jessica Conditt got to play RemedyΓÇÖs FBC: Firebreak and was
tentatively optimistic about what is a pretty major genre-shift for the
studio known for single-player games such as Alan Wake and Control (Firebreak
is set in the same location as the latter). The important building blocks of
a great co-operative shooter were there, and the hope is that Remedy has
polished up the experience ahead of launch. FBC: Firebreak also joins PS Plus
today as a day one release for both platforms, which should hopefully help
get it off the ground.

Also joining today is Lost in Random: The Eternal Die, a roguelite spin-off
of 2021ΓÇÖs Lost in Random, that has more than a hint of Hades about it
judging by screenshots and fast-paced gameplay clips weΓÇÖve seen in the
runup to launch.

Another notable Game Pass additions arrives on June 19. Rematch is a soccer
game that eschews the more sim-like approach of EA Sports FC in favor of an
arcade-style spin on the worldΓÇÖs most popular sport. Matches are 5v5, and
you only control one player on your team. There are no offsides, no fouls and
no breaks in play, so referees wonΓÇÖt bail you out when something doesnΓÇÖt
go your way. Rematch is the latest game from the Paris-based indie studio
Sloclap, who made the incredibly stylish kung fu game, Sifu. ItΓÇÖs no
surprise, then, that RematchΓÇÖs almost impressionist aesthetic is just as
easy on the eye.

ItΓÇÖs also a big month for Game PassΓÇÖ ever-growing catalogue of Activision
Blizzard games, with the remastered versions of Warcraft I and Warcraft II,
as well as Warcraft III: Reforged all being added on June 26. Call of Duty:
WWII joins them on June 30. As we head into July, Game Pass subscribers can
download or stream Little Nightmares II and Rise of the Tomb Raider, which
returns to MicrosoftΓÇÖs service ahead of the gameΓÇÖs 10th anniversary in
November.
