Microsoft's gaming subscription service is continuing to grow, with new comments indicating that Xbox Game Pass is getting more investment than ever before.
Speaking with Eurogamer in a broader interview about Xbox and indie games as a whole, ID@Xbox head Chris Charla says that 2025 has been a massive year for Xbox Game Pass, with many developers wanting to continue bringing games to the service.
"The majority of partners who've had a game in Game Pass want to bring their future titles to the service," Charla says. "As a result, we've signed deals with more than 150 partners to expand the catalogue. We continue to engage with hundreds of partners each year to review upcoming titles."
Charla also says that 2025 marks the biggest investment ever for Xbox Game Pass, with an increasing number of teams being signed on for the program.
"Last year, we worked with over 50 teams to sign their first Game Pass deal. This year marks our largest investment in Game Pass to date, and we remain focused on delivering the most exciting and diverse catalogue in gaming."
ID@Xbox works with independent developers, bringing on teams that have less experience (or in some cases, no experience) publishing video games.
