Xbox Game Pass is getting 11 new games in December, with some out on the platform starting today. The list includes The Game Awards nominated Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga and Eastward, which was previously a console exclusive on Nintendo Switch.
Microsoft’s gaming service tends to add two batches of games every month, so this new batch makes up the first half of its December releases. Starting today, players can already download Eastward, The Walking Dead: The Final Season, and Totally Reliable Delivery Service.
Next week brings more releases, including Lego Star Wars, Hello Neighbor 2, and Chained Echoes. Metal: Hellsinger will also become available for Xbox One users. Beyond that, highlights include the upcoming High on Life and Hot Wheels Unleashed — Game of the Year Edition. Here’s the full list.

It’s worth noting that this year’s Game Awards take place on December 8. Microsoft has historically unveiled new Game pass releases at the show, so it’s possible that more is coming. A recent rumor indicates that Monster Hunter Rise may be bound for the service soon.
