Persona 5 Royal Headlines Xbox Game Pass June 2026 Wave 1

Microsoft has confirmed the lineup of games coming to Xbox Game Pass during the first half of June, which is headlined by the arrival of Persona 5 Royal.

It's a much quieter start to the month following the arrival of Forza Horizon 6 on Xbox Game Pass in May, though who knows — more upcoming additions may be revealed this weekend when Microsoft takes the stage for its annual Xbox Games Showcase.

In the meantime, today's Xbox Wire blog lists a string of games for the coming weeks, including floating island survival game Solarpunk, boxing title Undisputed, and cozy life sim meets deckbuilding puppet adventure Beastro (not Balatro, as I initially read). Then there's co-op extraction puzzle-platformer Frog Sqwad and 3D action platformer Junkster.

Day One launches include the early access arrival of Starseeker: Astroneer Expeditions, a new co-op game set within the Astroneer universe with a focus on teamwork. Herdling and Total Chaos join Xbox Game Pass Premium, meanwhile, after previously having been available to Game Pass PC and Ultimate subscribers.
