ARC Raiders will be available to all Xbox members without a Game Pass subscription. Screamer and Family Man require Game Pass Ultimate, Premium or Essential.

Subscription-access games

Screamer is an arcade racing game with combat mechanics and anime-inspired aesthetics. Family Man is a story-driven RPG built around moral choices and earning money to support a family.

Timed trials for other games

High On Life 2, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, Little Nightmares III and Rogue Waters will be available to Xbox players as timed trials. The Rogue Waters trial lasts two hours.
