It is a new week for Xbox gamers, and there are already three confirmed titles joining Xbox Game Pass games this week. From a major Call of Duty release to a new indie game and a popular fighting title, subscribers have several interesting options to try between September 8 and September 10.
Two of these games are major additions, while The Royal Writ is arriving as a day-one indie release. This makes the week a nice mix for players looking for different types of gaming experiences.
Xbox Game Pass Games This Week: Full List
Here is a quick look at the three confirmed games coming to Xbox Game Pass:
| Game | Release Date | Game Type |
|---|---|---|
| Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War | September 8 | Action / Shooter |
| The Royal Writ | September 10 | Medieval Roguelike Deckbuilder |
| Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage | September 10 | Fighting |
The biggest name on the list is easily Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, but the other two games are worth keeping an eye on as well.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War – September 8

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is the direct sequel to the original Black Ops and takes players into the tense world of the early 1980s Cold War.
The single-player campaign features a global setting with locations such as East Berlin, Vietnam, Turkey and Soviet KGB headquarters. Players will also encounter historical figures while dealing with a story where things are not always what they seem.
For Xbox Game Pass subscribers who enjoy action-packed campaigns, this is likely to be the biggest addition of the week.
The Royal Writ – September 10
The second game arriving this week is The Royal Writ, a medieval roguelike deckbuilder launching as a day-one release.
The game combines card-based battles with a story built around sacrifice and permanent consequences. Players command heroes in battles, but fallen characters become part of the kingdom’s legend.
The idea of losing heroes permanently could make each decision feel more important, especially for players who enjoy strategy and roguelike games.
Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage – September 10
The third addition is Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage. The game is particularly interesting because it arrived on Xbox Series X|S less than a year ago.
Its addition gives fighting-game fans another reason to check out Game Pass this week. With three very different games arriving within just a few days, there is something for several types of players.
What Makes This Week Interesting?

The Xbox Game Pass games this week offer a good balance of genres. Call of Duty brings a major shooter experience, The Royal Writ focuses on strategy and deckbuilding, while Virtua Fighter 5 targets fighting-game fans.
There are no brand-new Xbox releases scheduled for September 8 itself, but more releases are expected from Tuesday through Friday.
For Game Pass subscribers, September 8–10 is already shaping up to be a busy few days with three confirmed games to explore.
