How's your Xbox Game Pass backlog looking at the moment? We've had a pretty strong month for September bolstered by the arrival of Deathloop, and October's lineup looks strong as well, so it's safe to say ours is pretty extensive right now! A minimum of Scorn and A Plague Tale: Requiem will also be added pretty soon, but at least we've had an apology from Team Xbox about the situation...
Xbox's Aaron Greenberg has taken to Twitter to 'apologise' for the team adding even more big games to Xbox Game Pass this month. We're not sure such a joke will help our backlogs much (seriously, please help), but it's amusing to see Xbox acknowledge our struggles!
The four titles highlighted by Klobrille don't even take into account the couple of extra Game Pass updates we'll see during the month too, so it's safe to say things are going to get busy real soon. Oh well, we can't complain at more games can we!
At present, 10 titles are confirmed for Xbox Game Pass this month, including all the additions highlighted in this article. It's going to be a stacked October folks; let's start on those backlogs shall we?!
Which is your most anticipated October Game Pass title? Let us know in the comments below.

Persona 5 Royal is the champion of creating huge gaming backlogs. Xbox players should see unprecedented levels of backlog if they choose to invest in this game!
Much as I loved persona 5, it took me 140 hours to complete, and at least 70 hours of that is watching the story. I've had two hour sessions where I didn't get to play anything!
Be aware this will take some time! It IS worth it, but I cant go through it again
Fortunately I played Deathloop on PS, so at least that's not in the queue!
I can't wait for P5R and A Plague Tale. This next to Gotham Knights, Star ocean 6 and god of War all coming within like 3 weeks of each other going to make it a busy time.
@SplooshDmg lol! I understand that
Scorn and Plague Tale.
Hopefully they hit my sweet spot of 15-20 hours.
Then I can tackle the backlog
And on switch we have Mario rabbids and Bayonetta 3 also coming this month it’s impossible to play all this 🤪
I’m at the point where I’m mostly playing games leaving so I don’t miss out.
Sable and Echos generation for me this next week or two.
The fact games leave with such short notice is the worst thing about gamepass. Like oh that game you wanted to play for 8 month you now have 14 days drop everything asap. It’s a dumb feature of gamepass.
It's at the point where you might as well wait for most games to hit Gamepass.
I'm still going through Xenoblade 3, like 120 hours in and still got some lose ends I want to tie up with hero story arcs before I finally am done with it.
Think once I'm done, I'll be picking up the first Plague Tale and binge into Requiem.
@JayJ
Yup. I can't decide if I should buy anything anymore or just wait. As for the games, already got A Plague Tale installed and I've played Persona 5 on PS5 a while back so not going to devote 100 hours to it again. Scorn looks like a walking simulator with some shock value, but I'd like to be wrong.
