25 gamesHDR (High Dynamic Range) expands the range between the darkest and brightest parts of an image, so shadows keep detail instead of crushing to black and bright highlights like sunlight or explosions don't blow out to flat white. Combined with a wider color gamut, it's one of the more dramatic visual upgrades available on Xbox Series X|S, provided your TV or monitor actually supports HDR10. These are the Game Pass games with HDR support, so you can quickly tell which titles will look their best on a properly calibrated HDR display.
HDR makes the biggest visual difference in games with strong contrast between light and dark — think a dim dungeon lit by a single torch, or a sunset reflecting off water. It pairs naturally with Dolby Vision for an even more precise scene-by-scene picture on supported displays. Each title below is free with your subscription — the price shown is what it would cost to buy and keep. See other features or the full catalogue.

How do I know if HDR is working on my Xbox?
Go to Settings > General > TV & display options on your Xbox and confirm HDR is enabled and detected — most TVs will also show an on-screen "HDR" badge briefly when a compatible game starts.
