How has this list changed? Read back through our update history:

Update 11/19/2025: Added Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Street Fighter 6, Hollow Knight: Silksong, Metaphor Refantazio, Keeper, Avowed, Baldur’s Gate 3, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and removed Gears 5, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, The Witcher 3, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Life Is Strange: True Colors, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Tetris Effect Connected.

Update 1/3/2023: Added Alan Wake II and Cocoon and removed Destiny 2 until things improve.

Update 7/12/2023: Said bye-bye to Shredders and welcomed the next-gen version of The Witcher 3, Hi-Fi Rush, and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

Update 4/27/2021: Bid farewell to Immortals Fenyx Rising and say hi to Elden Ring, Shredders, and Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

Update 1/18/2021: Gone is the 12-game limit! We’ve removed Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Though it’s terrific, Halo Infinite is clearly the place to play Halo right now, so that game joins alongside Forza Horizon 5, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Life is Strange: True Colors as new additions to our current list of 13.

Update 2/8/2021: We’re closing in on that 12-game limit! Agent 47 hit the mark in Hitman 3.

Update 12/25/2020: The recent add-ons and next-gen optimizations of Destiny 2 and Gears 5 make both old games feel brand-new and worthy of inclusion. We’ve also immortalized Immortals Fenyx Rising.
