Highlights include South of Midnight, Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition, Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition, and more.
According to a recent Xbox Wire post, the month kicks off on April 3 with the addition of Gearbox Software's Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition (Cloud, Console, and PC) across all tiers. Joining it are All You Need Is Help (Console), Still Wakes the Deep (Xbox Series X | S), and Wargroove 2 (Console), all available on Game Pass Standard.

Just five days later, on April 8, South of Midnight (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X | S) and Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition (Console and PC) will be available for all Game Pass subscribers.
South of Midnight, developed by Compulsion Games and set in the Deep South, promises to be one of Xbox's most anticipated releases of the year. Microsoft describes it as an adventure where players will "Explore the mythos and confront mysterious creatures of the Deep South in this modern folktale while learning to weave an ancient power to surmount obstacles and face the pain haunting your hometown."The lineup continues with Commandos: Origins (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X | S) arriving on April 9 for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers, followed by Blue Prince (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X | S) on April 10 for the same tiers. Rounding out the first wave, Hunt: Showdown 1896 (PC) will be added on April 15 for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass members.
