Xbox Game Pass May 2026 Wave 2 Loads 13 More Titles - Remnant II, Luna Abyss, Echo Generation 2, Crashout Crew, and Kabuto Park Headline a Day-One Slate, While June 2 Closes the Wave With Frontier's Jurassic World Evolution 3 and the Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster Landing in Ultimate and Premium on the Same Day

Microsoft's second Game Pass drop of the month adds 13 titles between May 20 and June 2 across Ultimate, Premium, and PC tiers. Day-one additions include Luna Abyss (May 21), Echo Generation 2 (May 27), and the Crashout Crew / Kabuto Park double on May 28. The standout finishers are Jurassic World Evolution 3 and Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster, both landing on June 2 and both available on the family-friendly Premium tier - a tonal pivot from April's action-heavy calendar.

Xbox Game Pass May 2026 Wave 2 Loads 13 More Titles - Remnant II, Luna Abyss, Echo Generation 2, Crashout Crew, and Kabuto Park Headline a Day-One Slate, While June 2 Closes the Wave With Frontier's Jurassic World Evolution 3 and the Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster Landing in Ultimate and Premium on the Same DayGame Pass

Microsoft has loaded the back half of May with 13 more Game Pass titles, closing out the month's calendar with a Wave 2 announcement that runs from today through June 2 - a stretch that opens with Remnant II hitting the service this morning and finishes with Frontier's Jurassic World Evolution 3 and the Pixel Remaster of Final Fantasy VI rolling in on the same day.

The headline additions sit at the bookends. Day-one drops are clustered toward late May: Luna Abyss arrives on May 21, Echo Generation 2 lands on May 27, and the double-bill of Crashout Crew and Kabuto Park share a release on May 28 - all going straight into the catalog the moment they go on sale.

The full Wave 2 calendar

Microsoft''s Xbox Wire post organises the additions by tier, with the Ultimate / Premium / PC split mostly tracking what subscribers already expect. The complete list:

Forza Horizon 6, the May 19 mega-launch that anchored Wave 1, sits inside Wave 2''s promo art now that it is officially in the catalog on Ultimate and PC.

Jurassic World Evolution 3 park overview

Two big subscription pickups on June 2

Jurassic World Evolution 3 is the marquee park-builder, with its full Frontier sandbox - Cretaceous staging, hatchery management, weather systems, and the post-launch Wetlands Pack content - going into Ultimate and Premium on June 2. For a Game Pass slot it lines up neatly with Microsoft''s family-friendly summer messaging: Peppa Pig and Pigeon Simulator on May 20 round out a wave that, in tone, is far broader than the action-heavy April calendar.

Final Fantasy VI being part of the same June 2 drop is the other shoe Square Enix watchers have been waiting on. The Pixel Remaster has been on Steam and console storefronts for several years, but its arrival in Game Pass Premium and Ultimate is the first time it has been available on a Microsoft subscription tier at no extra cost.

On the in-game-benefits side, Microsoft Jewel and World of Tanks: HEAT both get perks added on May 26.

The full announcement is live on Xbox Wire now.

Clockfall's Gameplay Trailer Lands - Rever Games and Radical Theory's Hybrid Action-RPG Roguelite Shows Off Its Time-as-Resource Hook, Dungeon Combat, and Village-Defense Layer, With the Open PC Playtest Already Registering on Steam and Early Access Still Targeted for 2026 Before the Full PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC Launch in 2027

The clearest look yet at Clockfall, the Rever Games / Radical Theory roguelite where every action in the dungeon costs ticks on a global clock that is also draining your village's wave-defense timer above. The Gameplay Reveal Trailer plays up melee chains, parry windows, an elemental spell layer, and a multi-phase boss; the village layer gets a shorter cut but lands the time-pressure thesis. Steam playtest is open now, Early Access is still on the books for 2026, and the full PS5 / Xbox / PC launch is targeted for 2027.
