As you can see, Xbox Game Pass will kick off with 112 games. Naturally, these range from independent games, to backward compatible Xbox 360 games, to AAA titles like Gears of War and Halo 5: Guardians.

As mentioned above, this list will change over time. Once you choose a game to play, you'll download it to your console, after which you'll be able to play it offline for 30 days. Naturally, if that game is removed from the list during that period, you won't be able to play it after the month is up.

It's also worth noting that Xbox Game Pass won't work with an Xbox 360 console, despite the fact that many of the games were built for it. This is great news for Xbox One owners though, as it guarantees that all 360 titles on the list will be backward compatible.
