Microsoft has announced its next wave of Game Pass titles available in April 2025, including the return of Grand Theft Auto 5, a game you may have heard of. As announced previously, this return also brings with it the PC Game Pass debut of GTA 5’s new Enhanced Edition for PC players – the first time the game has been offered in any PC subscription service.
Also included in these latest additions is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 – the more recent one from 2022 – although you’ll only be getting access to that, for now, if you have Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass. It’s the same deal as well for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, the turn-based RPG from France that we’ve been keeping a hopeful eye on.
Here are the list of Xbox Game Pass additions for late April 2025:
- Grand Theft Auto 5 (Cloud, Console and PC, via Standard, Ultimate and PC) – available now
