Adventure game Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo is coming to the Ultimate tier of Xbox Game Pass on May 16, the day of its release. Day one games are the main reason to sign up for an Xbox Game Pass subscription, though the Ultimate tier features other benefits to help sweeten the pot for subscribers.
For most Xbox gamers, an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription is a no-brainer. With it, subscribers are able to play brand-new games on the day that they release, plus access exclusive perks, discounts on various games, and play online multiplayer. Microsoft ensures that new games are added to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on a regular basis, with May 2025 set to see its fair share of fresh titles.
Xbox Game Pass Will Lose At Least 8 Titles on May 15
Microsoft reveals that Xbox Game Pass subscribers will lose access to at least eight titles on May 15, 2025, including some highly rated titles.
One of the new Xbox Game Pass games for May 2025 is Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo, making its way to the Ultimate tier of the service on May 16. Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo is a papercraft adventure game where players take on the role of a dead snake exploring Limbo. Players are tasked with interacting with the titular "souls of Limbo" to gather clues that in turn help them solve puzzles and overcome the "dark souls" they come across. The game features a Latin American interpretation of the afterlife, with vibes that can be described as Paper Mario meets Grim Fandango or Pixar's Coco film.
Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo Confirms May 16 Release Date
Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo looks like a solid new game for adventure game fans to try when it launches on May 16. However, Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to new Xbox Game Pass games for May 2025. As far as other day one games go, Revenge of the Savage Planet is coming to the Ultimate tier of Game Pass on May 8, Doom: The Dark Ages is joining the lineup on May 15, and To a T will be added on May 28. Spray Paint Simulator is also expected to release as a day one Xbox Game Pass game in May 2025, but its release date has yet to be announced.
Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo will also be available on Nintendo Switch.
Besides day one games, Xbox Game Pass subscribers can also look forward to older titles making their way to the Ultimate tier of the service. The month started with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2022) and Anno 1800 making their Game Pass Ultimate debut, and Dredge is set to join them on May 6. Clearly, May 2025 is going to be a busy month for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, and the thing is, it's highly likely that there are even more games on the way that haven't even been revealed yet.
