Are you prepared to watch the Eagles snatch defeat from the jaws of victory this weekend? I am not, but destiny may have other plans. Either way, Philadelphia will be a mess. Schools are already opening late the day after the Super Bowl, a perfect time to relive the glory of Saquon Barkley somehow mustering over 150 rushing yards for a second game in a row, or to get revenge on Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, in Madden NFL 25 when it hits Game Pass Ultimate this week.
Microsoft outlined its February 2025 wave 1 lineup for Game Pass on Tuesday and it includes the following games:
Game Pass Ultimate and PC
- Far Cry New Dawn (Cloud, Console, and PC) – February 4
- Madden NFL 25 (Cloud, Console, and PC) EA Play – February 6
- Kingdom Two Crowns (Cloud and Console) – February 13
- Avowed (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S) – February 18
Game Pass Standard
- Another Crab’s Treasure (Console) – February 5
- Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes (Console) – February 5
- Starfield (Xbox Series X|S) – February 5
A few things to note in addition to Madden NFL 25 joining the library. Far Cry New Dawn, while technically a 2019 game, recently got a 60fps update on current-gen consoles. It’s a Fallout-style spin-off of Far Cry 5 set in a post-nuclear-explosion middle-America sandbox. And Avowed, Obsidian’s Skyrim-like first-person RPG set in its Pillars of Eternity universe, while officially out on February 18, can actually be played five days early on February 13 by anyone who purchases the $25 Premium Upgrade add-on.
The latest Game Pass haul arrives as Microsoft prepares to bring more first-party games to PlayStation 5. Following the announcement that Forza Horizon 5 will hit Sony’s platform in the spring, the company also revealed today that Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition and Age of Mythology: Retold will be arriving there shortly as well. The console remasters of the real-time strategy classics play surprisingly well with a controller.
Both games will have cross-play, and Age of Mythology: Retold will get future updates simultaneously across both platforms after it comes to PS5 on March 5. AoE II, meanwhile, will arrive sometime in the spring.
