Xbox Game Pass is getting another Co-Op game in June

by

Xbox Game Pass gets a new co-op game called Frog Squad in June 2026. The upcoming indie title aims to differentiate itself from the rest of the Xbox Game Pass collaborative catalog through a mix of physics-based gameplay, slapstick humor, and support for large parties of up to eight players.

Frog Squad is the debut title from Panic Stations, a British studio founded in late 2025 by several former developers of the 2020 Battle Royale hit Autumn guys. Panic Stations is part of Skeleton Crew, a game development collective that focuses on creating experimental titles on a smaller scale.

Xbox Game Pass adds 2025 games with Couch Co-Op and 'Very positive' reviews

The 11th title to join Xbox Game Pass this month is a 2025 couch and online co-op game with an 86 OpenCritic score and “Highly Positive” player reviews.

Frog Sqwad Revealed as Day-One Xbox Game Pass Title

Panic Stations was formally announced Frog Squad during the recent Xbox Partner Preview showcase on March 26. The reveal included a 51-second gameplay trailer that establishes the game as a cooperative multiplayer experience where up to eight players explore vast sewers, hauling back food for a “Swamp King” and solving a bunch of physics challenges along the way. Interact with objects in Frog Squads colorful world usually involves attaching them with a frog tongue and gently dragging them across the level. The task becomes more complicated when these objects are rigged to explode or surrounded by traps that threaten to make short work of the group of frogs.

Looking at the bigger picture, the recently revealed title relies in part on roguelite elements, as players can exchange food collected during runs for gold, which can then be spent on gadgets and upgrades that expand their options in future runs. The frogs themselves can also consume food to grow larger, eventually transforming into a “Megafrog” that can overcome certain challenges more easily than their smaller counterparts. Frog Squad will also feature proximity chat and procedurally generated levels that help make each sewer unique.

Frog Squad is currently aiming for a June 2026 launch, though a concrete release date is still lacking. As is the case with most titles shown during the new Xbox Partner Preview event, the co-op platformer will join the Xbox Game Pass catalog on day one. Most day and date additions to Microsoft's content library are only available through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, with Frog Squad likely to continue this pattern.

Frog Squad is one of nearly 30 day-one titles currently confirmed to be coming to Xbox Game Pass in 2026 but still lacking a firm release date. That group includes the roguelit shooter Armatushorror top-down shooter Darkwood 2and RTS Tropical 7. Ditto for the highly anticipated open world RPG Fablewhich is currently in development at Playground Games. In the near term, Beastly, Freestyle Football 2, and Densh attack expected to receive availability updates soon, after all previously officially released in spring 2026.
