Xbox Game Releases August 20th to 26th 2018

Included is a list of all the Xbox game releases for August 20th to 26th 2018. This list goes over all the titles freshly releasing, coming out of Xbox Game Preview or just generally entering that program. Note that certain releases might change due to developer delays or certification issues and we'll do our best to update things as that happens. You're able to click on the title of the games to see the Xbox Store page for your region and to get additional information such as pricing.

Games that are Xbox One X Enhanced will have the "Enhanced" tag. If you're looking for more details on those games it's best to check out our previews or the Install Sizes Area (Click here) since all enhanced sizes will be available there. Games that will support the Xbox Play Anywhere program will have the "XPA" tag meaning if you buy them digitally once you own it on Xbox One and Windows 10 PC. There will be a "Review" tag for the games we either have reviews on or will be reviewing around launch so look forward to those. A final tag is for games that debut on the subscription service from Xbox with "Game Pass"
