Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 and Minami Lane go live on Xbox Game Pass July 9

Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass added two more titles on Wednesday, July 9, with Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 and Minami Lane appearing in the service’s July rollout, according to Xbox pages and Xbox Wire. Xbox Wire’s July 7 “Coming to Xbox Game Pass” post listed Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 in the month’s first wave, while Xbox store pages for both games show Game Pass availability language. (news.xbox.com) (xbox.com) July 9 has become one of the busier dates in Microsoft’s current Game Pass schedule. In the same Xbox Wire post, Microsoft also listed Gears of War: Reloaded and Tamashika for July 9, alongside later additions including Ascend to Zero on July 13 and PBA Pro Bowling 2026 on July 14. (news.xbox.com) ### Which Game Pass tiers get Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2? Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 is tied to Game Pass Premium on Xbox’s store page, which labels the game “Coming Soon to Premium.” The Xbox Wire July 7 post also included Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 in the July 2026 wave, though regional Xbox Wire versions differ on the exact tier wording attached to the game. (news.xbox.com) The Xbox store listing describes the game as the remade collection of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2, rebuilt in HD with returning skaters, levels, tricks, local two-player play and online multiplayer. (news.xbox.com) The page also lists a $39.99 price for the base edition outside the subscription offer. ### What does Minami Lane’s listing actually say? Minami Lane’s Xbox store page says the game is included with Game Pass and describes it as a “tiny cozy, casual management sim” set on a Japanese-inspired street. The page says players create and manage a street, with homes, shops and attractions, and says the game offers about two to four hours of playtime. (xbox.com) A 2025 Xbox Wire post for Minami Lane’s earlier Game Pass arrival listed the game for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass on July 9, 2025. Current Xbox store and cloud pages show the title remains playable through Xbox’s ecosystem, including cloud access in supported markets. (xbox.com) ### Why is there some confusion around the July 9 lineup? Xbox Wire’s main U.S. July 7 post does not show Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 and Minami Lane in the visible July 9 slots from the excerpt currently surfaced in search results. The same post instead shows Gears of War: Reloaded and Tamashika on that date. (xbox.com) Regional Xbox Wire pages and Xbox store listings show why readers may be seeing mixed information. Spanish- and Portuguese-language Xbox Wire pages for the same July 7 announcement list Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 for July 21, not July 9, while the Xbox store page for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 says “Coming Soon to Premium” rather than “Available today.” (news.xbox.com) ### So what is verified as of July 9? July 9 is confirmed in Microsoft’s own materials as a Game Pass date for Gears of War: Reloaded and Tamashika, according to Xbox Wire. (news.xbox.com) Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 is confirmed by Microsoft’s store as headed to Game Pass Premium, but the store language surfaced today does not itself confirm a July 9 live date. Minami Lane is confirmed on Xbox’s store as included with Game Pass, and older Xbox Wire material shows the title has previously been part of the Game Pass catalog. Readers checking the service next will likely be watching Xbox Wire’s July schedule updates and the Xbox store pages for any change from “coming soon” to live availability language.
