Xbox Game Pass February Wave 2 adds The Witcher 3, EA Sports College Football 26, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance II

What Xbox announced

Xbox Wire published a broad Game Pass update on February 17, 2026, covering both immediate drops and late-February to early-March additions. The headline items in the post are The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition, EA Sports College Football 26, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. The update also clarifies that some titles are coming to Cloud, some to Console, and some to PC, with tier differences across Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and PC Game Pass.

Key dates in this wave

• February 17: Aerial_Knight’s DropShot, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and Avowed update access.
• February 19: Death Howl, EA Sports College Football 26, and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition.
• February 24 to February 26: TCG Card Shop Simulator (Game Preview), Dice A Million, and Towerborne 1.0 full release.
• March 3: Final Fantasy III and Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.

Xbox also highlighted that EA Sports College Football 26 includes an EA Play path for Ultimate subscribers, with a Supercharge Pack window from February 19 to March 20 and an EA digital purchase discount noted in the same announcement.

Library exits and user impact

The same post confirms that Monster Train, Expeditions: A MudRunner Game, Injustice 2, and Middle Earth: Shadow of War are leaving on February 28. For subscribers, this matters as much as new arrivals because playthrough planning, cloud save completion, and discount purchasing decisions usually happen in the final week before removal.

From a service strategy perspective, this wave mixes evergreen catalog anchors with fresh update beats and Game Preview content. That combination typically aims to reduce churn by serving different player segments in one cycle: returning RPG players, live-service audiences, and users looking for short discovery sessions.

For players tracking value month to month, the practical takeaway is simple: queue exits first, then prioritize date-specific arrivals like The Witcher 3 and Kingdom Come: Deliverance II once they unlock.
