Xbox Game Pass Crossplay Oct 2026: 4 New Games Added [Confirmed]

Xbox Game Pass added four new cross‑play games—Gears of War: E-Day, Battlefield 6, Deep Dish Dungeon, and Chained Beasts—on October 18, 2026, expanding the service’s cross‑platform roster and enabling full cross‑play support across PC, Xbox consoles, and mobile devices. According to verified reports from Game Rant, the update also introduces cross‑progression for these titles, meaning players can carry their progress and purchases between platforms seamlessly. The addition of Gears of War: E-Day brings a fast‑paced, close‑quarters shooter to the list, while Battlefield 6 adds large‑scale, vehicle‑heavy battles that benefit from broader player pools. Deep Dish Dungeon and Chained Beasts diversify the catalog with a co‑op dungeon crawler and a fantasy action‑RPG, respectively. This expansion pushes Xbox Game Pass’s cross‑play count to 58 titles, surpassing the previous record of 54.
