Xbox Game Pass is expanding once again in November 2024, with a strong array of new games for the month – including some GamesHub favourites. Both Harold Halibut and Turnip Boy Robs a Bank are highlights for us, but there’s also an array of other games worth mentioning, from StarCraft: Remastered to Metal Slug Tactics, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, Nine Sols, and beyond.
As in most months, there are also some departures on the way, but that’s how it goes on Xbox Game Pass. Games arrive, enjoy their time in the sun, and then depart with a brief wave.
