October 29 Is Officially A Huge Day For Xbox Game Pass

Xbox Game Pass has had a decent October 2026 so far. This month has already seen a number of day-one releases on Game Pass, including Bluey’s Happy Snaps on October 15 and Gears of War: E-Day on October 6. The good times are even continuing today, with The Seance of Blake Manor arriving on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. However, the best is yet to come.

Despite all of those exciting releases earlier this month, October 29 is easily the biggest day for Game Pass subscribers overall. On Thursday, October 29, 2026, Xbox Game Pass members will get four new games — the most titles dropped on any single date all month long. From a 10/10 horror masterpiece to an immensely popular RPG, there’s a little something for everyone on that date.

The titles coming to Xbox Game Pass on October 29 are:

• Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade
• Mouthwashing
• Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted
• Terrible Lizards

Terrible Lizards, which is available for PC and Ultimate subscribers, is a day-one release on Xbox Game Pass. It’s a first-person survival horror game taking place inside an old Route 66 attraction about dinosaurs. Because the game isn’t out yet, there are no reviews to pull from, but there is a free demo available on Steam if you’d like to check it out before Terrible Lizards arrives on Game Pass this Thursday.

Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted is an HD remaster of the tower defense game, which originally launched in the late 2000s. The remaster is only about a year old, and our review of Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted said this about it: “It has some rough edges, but the core gameplay loop still works like a charm 16 years later.” So, if you’re a fan of the original, you might want to give this one a try.

Of course, it’s perfect timing for Mouthwashing to arrive on Game Pass. The horror game became a viral hit two years ago, and with Halloween taking place this weekend, it’s a great time to see Mouthwashing has to offer if you’ve never played it before. Just a far warning: you might want to play it with the lights on. And even if you have played Mouthwashing before, revisiting this modern classic of the horror genre around Halloween still sounds like a good time.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade arguably has the most brand recognition of any of these four titles coming to Game Pass on October 29. This includes the base game of FF7 Remake and the Episode INTERmission DLC starring Yuffie, which our review praised as “a tight, fun experience that firmly establishes another engrossing character in the FF7 Remake universe.” If you’re looking for an immersive, 90-hour RPG, then definitely consider adding this game to your library.

It’s not all good news, however. Almost a dozen games will be leaving Xbox Game Pass on October 31, so you only have one last chance to play those. At least these four new games will soften the blow a bit. They’re all up for grabs on October 29, making it the biggest day for Game Pass all month long.
