Xbox Game Pass is kicking off 2025 with a fresh batch of titles, starting with a strong addition for Ultimate subscribers: Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders, launching January 21st as a day-one game. While the first half of January saw primarily tier shifts, the second half promises a more substantial update.
