Xbox Game Pass is heating up this summer with a packed June lineup, headlined by the unexpected addition of *Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla*. Ubisoft’s sprawling open-world Viking adventure joins the Game Pass catalog starting June 6, alongside several other high-profile and indie titles that highlight Microsoft’s commitment to variety and value for subscribers.
Originally released in 2020, *Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla* follows Eivor, a Viking raider navigating the political and mystical landscape of 9th century England. The game was praised for its rich world, deep RPG mechanics, and extensive post-launch support. Its arrival on Game Pass marks the first major title from Ubisoft’s flagship franchise to hit the service, signaling a strengthening relationship between Ubisoft and Xbox.
Joining *Valhalla* in June are several notable additions across genres. Indie darling *Totally Accurate Battle Simulator* makes its return, offering chaotic physics-based strategy fun. Meanwhile, horror fans can sink their teeth into *Amnesia: The Bunker*, the newest installment in Frictional Games’ iconic series, arriving day one to Game Pass on June 20.
Here’s a breakdown of key Game Pass titles arriving in June:
– *Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla* – June 6
– *Totally Accurate Battle Simulator* – June 13
– *Amnesia: The Bunker* – June 20 (Day One release)
– *Hypnospace Outlaw* – June 8
– *Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town* – June 15
In addition to these new entries, Microsoft confirmed a handful of titles will be leaving the platform mid-month, including *Empire of Sin* and *Chorus*, so players may want to prioritize finishing those before they vanish.
The diverse June lineup cements Xbox Game Pass as an evolving platform that appeals to every kind of gamer—from those seeking AAA worlds to explore, to fans of creative indie innovations. With rumors swirling about even more third-party collaborations and day-one drops in the near future, Game Pass subscribers have plenty to look forward to as summer begins.
