February 2026 is already shaping up nicely for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, even before Microsoft unveils the full lineup. So far, three titles have been officially confirmed, led by the absurdly entertaining High on Life 2, alongside a tactical sci-fi RPG and a dark, atmospheric deck-builder.
More games are expected to be announced in the coming weeks, and January’s lineup still has a few major drops left (including Resident Evil Village), but here’s what we know so far about February’s Game Pass additions.
/1. MENACE (PC) — February 5
Tactical warfare meets sci-fi survival. From the developers of Battle Brothers, MENACE is a turn-based tactical RPG where you lead an elite strike force against an alien threat across multiple worlds. Respond to distress calls, recruit and train infantry, deploy tanks and mechs, and carefully plan missions across detailed battlefields. Every decision matters, from squad loadouts to battlefield positioning, making MENACE a deep, strategy-heavy experience for fans of tactical combat.
/2. High on Life 2 (Xbox Series X|S, PC, Cloud) — February 13
The talking guns are back and louder than ever. The sequel to 2022’s breakout hit levels up everything fans loved about High on Life. An intergalactic conspiracy threatens humanity, and you’ll team up with an even wilder cast of sentient alien weapons as you shoot, stab, skate, and trash-talk your way across bizarre planets. Expect fast-paced combat, outrageous humour, and weird worlds packed with personality in one of February’s most anticipated Game Pass releases.
/3. Death Howl (Xbox Series X|S, Already on PC) — February 19
Strategy, sorrow, and survival collide. Set in a grim Spirit Realm, Death Howl is an open-world deck-building RPG where you master grid-based tactical combat using over 160 cards and powerful Totems. You play as Ro, a desperate hunter fighting to bring her son back from beyond the veil. Every battle blends careful positioning with card-based strategy, creating a haunting, thoughtful experience rooted in grief, resilience, and survival.
What Is Coming to Xbox Game Pass in January?
20 Mio: Memories in Orbit arrives on January 20 for Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Cloud via Game Pass Ultimate and PC, delivering a haunting sci-fi exploration experience set in a collapsing orbital world.
On the same day, Resident Evil Village joins Game Pass on Console, PC, and Cloud for Ultimate, Premium, and PC subscribers, bringing Ethan Winters’ chilling survival horror journey to even more players. Wrapping things up, Nova Roma launches on January 22 for PC via Game Pass Ultimate and PC, offering a deep city-building strategy set in ancient Rome.
Conclusion
Even with just three games confirmed, February 2026 is already shaping up to be a strong month for Xbox Game Passe offering a mix of tactical sci-fi combat, absurd shooter chaos, and atmospheric strategy-driven storytelling. With more announcements expected soon, and January’s lineup still delivering fresh titles, Game Pass subscribers have plenty to look forward to as the year rolls on.
