One of the more heavy hitting day one Xbox Game Pass games in 2022 is MLB: The Show 22 on April 4.

Subscribers can look forward to Infernax and Total War: Warhammer 3 later in February, while March will include games like FAR: Changing Tides and Weird West. Microsoft has yet to even reveal its full slate of games for the year, but looking ahead, there are already numerous day one titles that are scheduled to release on Xbox Game Pass throughout 2022. Microsoft's going to keep the focus on day one games in 2022, having already released numerous day one Xbox Game Pass games on the platform in January and February. For about the same price, they simply could've paid for Xbox Game Pass and had access to not only Forza Horizon 5 and Halo Infinite at launch, but a multitude of other games as well. For example, if someone were to purchase Forza Horizon 5 and Halo Infinite last year, it would've cost them upwards of $120. By adding day one games to the service, Microsoft ensures that Xbox Game Pass essentially pays for itself for those who pick up new games on a regular basis, making it legitimately the best deal in gaming. A key part of Microsoft's strategy when it comes to Xbox Game Pass is its day one games.
