Microsoft has confirmed this month’s batch of new arrivals on its Game Pass service on consoles, PC and cloud gaming.

Beginning on December 2nd, the following titles will be available through Game Pass:

Anvil (console, PC), Archvale (Cloud, console, PC), Final Fantasy XIII-2 (console, PC), Lawn Mowing Simulator (Cloud, console, PC), Rubber Bandits (Cloud, console, PC), Stardew Valley (Cloud, console, and PC) & Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector (Cloud, console, PC).

These titles will be joined on December 7th by Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator on cloud gaming, console, and PC. The very next day, on December 8th, the long-awaited Halo Infinite will join the service. On December 9th, One Piece Pirate Warriors 4 will join, followed by Among Us and Aliens: Fireteam Elite on December 14th.

There are some very heavy hitters among this group of games, beyond the highly-anticipated new Halo game. Among Us, the mobile game sensation that swept the globe last year, and mega-successful farming sim Stardew Valley stand out in particular as major gets for Game Pass.

December’s crop of new Game Pass titles is a nice mix of old classics, newer releases, major games, and indie titles.

In terms of what’s leaving Game Pass in December, the following titles will leave the service on December 15th: Beholder, The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan, Guacamelee! 2, Wilmot’s Warehouse, Unto The End, and Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair.
