The Soulslike genre, pioneered by Demon's Souls and Dark Souls, has blossomed into a thrilling subset of RPG and action-adventure gaming. Over the past decade, numerous ambitious projects have emerged, with 2023 alone seeing the release of heavy hitters like Lords of the Fallen, Lies of P, and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.

Xbox Game Pass stands out for its diverse offerings, striving to cater to a broad range of gaming preferences. While it doesn't include FromSoftware's seminal titles, Xbox Game Pass features an impressive selection of Soulslike games that serve as excellent alternatives to Dark Souls and Bloodborne.

As of the latest update on January 5, 2025, by Mark Sammut, the anticipation for new Soulslike additions to Game Pass continues. While it's too early to confirm specific releases for the new year, the promising Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is on the horizon. Meanwhile, subscribers can dive into the extensive library of Soulslike games already available on the platform.

New Game Pass Soulslike games will be prominently featured at the top of the list upon their addition.
