XBOX Wire put Sandustry on the August 2026 Xbox Game Pass list for August 13. The weekly roundup also tied several other games to dates from August 10 to 13.
For subscribers, that makes Sandustry the clearest dated addition in the latest Game Pass August feature. The same feature says release dates are subject to change, so the list is a schedule rather than a guarantee.
Game Pass August dates
Xbox Wire’s Next Week on XBOX feature covered games coming soon to XBOX Series X|S, XBOX One, XBOX on PC, and Game Pass. Within that list, Pieced Together was dated August 10 and Akatori was dated August 11.
Sandustry was dated August 13, placing it among the week’s most specific additions. That same date also included EA SPORTS Madden NFL 27, Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, Pro Jank Footy, and Wild Blue Sky.
EA SPORTS Madden NFL 27
The roundup gave EA SPORTS Madden NFL 27 a separate set of access details. It said the game can be played with xCloud, PC Game Pass, or Ultimate with EA Play.
The Deluxe Edition of EA SPORTS Madden NFL 27 offers 3 Day Early Access starting August 10. The feature also listed a 10-hour early access trial for the game.
August 13 lineup
Sandustry is the title in this list that most directly answers the reader’s immediate question: what is arriving on Game Pass and when. The dated lineup gives subscribers a short window to decide what to install first, while the changeable dates note means the schedule can still shift before August 13.
For anyone tracking August 2026 Xbox Game Pass, the practical move is simple: treat Sandustry as the lead date on the list, then check the rest of the August 10 to 13 lineup against any later update before planning playtime.
