Brand-New Day One Xbox Game Pass Game Confirmed for January 27

Tropico 7 is coming to Xbox Game Pass on January 27, 2027. Its release date announcement, which amounts to a small delay, also makes it the second officially confirmed Xbox Game Pass catalog addition for January 2027. Tropico 7 will arrive nearly eight years after the previous mainline installment in the long-running city-builder franchise, which originally debuted in March 2019. The gap between the two numbered entries does not mean the series has been dormant throughout that period: Tropico 6 received years' worth of post-launch additions , with its most recent expansion, Return to Nature , arriving in March 2025.
