Xbox Game Pass to add Far Cry 5 next month, will follow June's addition of Assassin’s Creed Origins

Following the massive success of Assassin's Creed Origins on Xbox Game Pass, Far Cry 5 is another AAA title from Ubisoft that will be added to the service. Xbox also confirmed that upcoming Game Pass titles will include FIFA 22 and Total War: Three Kingdoms.

Xbox Game Pass is a subscription-based service that brings players a vast selection of top-tier titles for a monthly fee. From AAA blockbusters to niche Indie titles, from open-world RPGs to action platformers and brawlers, the service offers a variety of content for a vast range of audiences.

Game Pass adds a new title every month, and this month has been no exception. Aside from the Day 1 launch of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, the biggest title to debut this month on Game Pass is Assassin’s Creed Origins.

Not only did the 10th installment of Ubisoft’s open-world stealth RPG become an instant hit on the service, but it also received a 60 FPS patch for players on Xbox Series X|S alongside the PS5 version.

Far Cry 5 will join Xbox Game Pass early next month

Far Cry 5, the fifth mainline installment of Ubisoft’s first-person open-world action RPG title, is all set to join Xbox Game Pass across PC, Console, and Cloud on July 1, 2022.

The title takes players to Hope County, Montana, a fictionalized suburban town in the American midwest where a cult has overtaken and the law has lost its power. The player assumes the role of an unnamed deputy and goes up against Father Joseph Seed, the Seed family, and the rest of Eden’s Gate, to librate the region.

Ubisoft started the year with the Rainbow Six Siege and Rainbow Six Extraction (day 1) debuting on Game Pass. Following the success, Xbox introduced Assassin’s Creed Origins and For Honor - Marching Fire Edition to the service. Far Cry 5 is the latest to join the service, and will certainly be a massive success.

With the announcement, Xbox also confirmed the lineup for the rest of June, including FIFA 22 and Total War: Three Kingdoms. With that being said, the entire upcoming lineup for Xbox Game Pass is as follows.
