Xbox Game Pass gets Absolum, Disco Elysium, and more in March 2026

Xbox Game Pass is adding another wave of games in March, led by Absolum. Developed by Guard Crush Games and Supamonks, Absolum blends side-scrolling beat-'em-up action with roguelike structure, pairing retro arcade design with modern systems. Combat mixes melee attacks and elemental powers, rewarding combo chains as well as punish attacks and aerial maneuvers; the game holds an 86 critic score on OpenCritic and a 90 player rating.

After previously appearing on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation consoles, and Windows PC, Absolum arrives on Xbox Series X and Game Pass on March 25. Also joining Game Pass is 2019’s Disco Elysium, a widely influential RPG in which you play a detective investigating murders while trying to piece together his lost past.

Player choices shape what kind of person the protagonist becomes, opening radically different approaches to problems. Reviews praised how the game’s systems interact and create a distinct role-playing experience, and Disco Elysium lands on Game Pass on March 19.
