Microsoft Reveals Xbox Game Pass Lineup for Late April 2026

Microsoft has announced the next wave of titles coming to Xbox Game Pass to close out April 2026. The update brings a mix of indie releases, new launches, and established franchises, including a classic entry from the Final Fantasy series.

The lineup also features new projects from well-known studios such as Double Fine Productions and Don’t Nod.

New Releases and Day-One Additions

One of the highlights is Kiln, arriving April 23. Developed by Double Fine, the multiplayer title brings a quirky competitive experience where players craft objects and sabotage opponents in fast-paced matches, reflecting the studio’s signature creative style.

Another major addition is Aphelion, a sci-fi adventure from Don’t Nod, set to launch directly on Game Pass on April 28. The studio is known for narrative-driven titles such as Life Is Strange, and the new release is expected to follow a similar storytelling approach.

The end of the month also sees the arrival of Final Fantasy V on April 30, expanding the catalog of classic RPGs available to subscribers.
