Xbox Game Pass: Your Ultimate Guide to Strategy Games
Xbox Game Pass boasts a surprisingly robust selection of strategy games, a genre once largely absent from consoles. From grand galactic empires to quirky invertebrate warfare, there's a title for every armchair general. This guide highlights the best strategy and tactical games available, with separate sections for Xbox and PC. Tactical games are included due to their shared strategic elements.
Note: This list was updated January 5, 2025, reflecting the exciting additions expected in 2025, including Commandos: Origins and Football Manager 25. A new strategy game was also added in December 2024; see the Quick Links below for details.
