The console market once lacked robust strategy games, aside from a few exceptions and unsuccessful attempts (like StarCraft's disastrous Nintendo 64 debut). However, numerous titles now offer intricate gameplay on living room consoles, especially on Xbox.

Xbox Game Pass provides a wealth of options for aspiring armchair commanders. Whether you prefer managing vast galactic empires or directing quirky invertebrate bomb-slingers, Game Pass has a strategy game for you.

Tactical games, while technically a separate genre, are included due to their strategic similarities.

Updated January 5, 2025 by Mark Sammut: The new year brings anticipation for 2025's gaming releases. Xbox Game Pass appears poised for a strong year, following a successful 2024. While not always the focus, new strategy games are expected, with several confirmed titles. Commandos: Origins and Football Manager 25 are particularly noteworthy, especially the former. Meanwhile, subscribers can explore a strategy game added to Game Pass in December 2024. See the link below.
