In any case, the new Xbox Game Pass games for November 2021 will kick off on November 2 when PC users get Minecraft: Java and Bedrock Editions. This marks the first time that Minecraft has been available for Game Pass on PC, but it’s been playable through the console version of the service for quite some time. November 2 will also see the addition of Unpacking, a “zen puzzle game” that will serve as one of the day one games for Xbox Game Pass in November 2021.

Then on November 4, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass for PC subscribers can check out one of the year’s highest-rated games in It Takes Two. A co-op platformer from the creator of A Way Out and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, It Takes Two earned widespread critical acclaim when it released earlier this year, and now Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can give it a shot as it’s coming to EA Play. November 4 will also see the addition of a first-person game about killing spiders called Kill It With Fire.
New Xbox Game Pass Games for November 2021
Minecraft: Java and Bedrock Edition (PC) - November 2 Unpacking (Cloud/Console/PC) - November 2 It Takes Two (Cloud/Console/PC) - November 4 Kill It With Fire (Cloud/Console/PC) - November 4 Football Manager 2022 (PC) - November 9 Football Manager 2022: Xbox Edition (Cloud/Console/PC) - November 9 Forza Horizon 5 (Cloud/Console/PC) - November 9 Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - The Definitive Edition (Console) - November 11 One Step from Eden (Console and PC) - November 11
November 9 will be an especially big day for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, as they get two versions of Football Manager 2022 to try. The PC version will be available to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers and those signed up for Game Pass for PC, while a special Xbox Edition of the game will be playable across cloud, console, and PC. Besides two versions of Football Manager 2022, though, November 9 will also see the addition of Forza Horizon 5, one of the year’s most highly-anticipated Xbox games.
A couple of days later on November 11, Xbox Game Pass subscribers can check out Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - The Definitive Edition on console, as well as One Step from Eden on both console and PC. Both are day one Xbox Game Pass games, and should help ensure that subscribers get their money’s worth for the first half of November.
And while not stated in the announcement, it should be noted that November 11 will also feature the launch of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim - Anniversary Edition. Apparently the existing version of Skyrim on Game Pass is getting upgraded to the Anniversary Edition and Microsoft didn’t feel the need to single it out for the lineup for whatever reason. So Xbox Game Pass subscribers have even more to look forward to than what was recently confirmed.
