Xbox Game Pass Surprise Announces New Day One Game Releasing in 24 Hours
The first Xbox Game Pass day one game is releasing in 24 hours, and its arrival comes as a complete surprise. Game Pass subscribers were under the impression that they were going to have to wait until the end of the month to get the first day-one Xbox Game Pass game, but then the official X account for the Microsoft subscription service shared a surprise day-one game announcement.
More specifically, using the official Xbox Game Pass social media account, Xbox announced Quarantine Zone: The Last Check is going to be a day-one Xbox Game Pass game. And Quarantine Zone: The Last Check is set to release in roughly 24 hours on January 12. There is some bad news that comes with this surprise, though.
Is Quarantine Zone: The Last Check on PlayStation 5 & Xbox Series X|S? All Platforms, Explained
Quarantine Zone: The Last Check is a unique hybrid as it features puzzle, strategy, and action elements rolled into one. You need to be a detective one second, and a tough decision-making zombie killer the next. If Quarantine Zone: The Last Check has piqued your interest, this guide will break down its platforms.
Gaming would be infinitely easier if every new title were released on every available platform. Obviously, this is never going to happen for various reasons, but it means we always have platform problems and console conundrums. Quarantine Zone: The Last Check is the perfect example, as it’s a promising indie title, but the audience doesn’t know where to seek shelter.

Xbox Game Pass’s social media account just announced that Quarantine Zone: The Last Check will join Game Pass for PC next week.
In a surprise late Friday announcement, the Xbox Game Pass account has announced that Quarantine Zone: The Last Check will join PC Game Pass on Monday, January 12th, 2026. It is a Devolver Digital title and should be joining the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate tier.
It has one review on Opencritic, an 85 from TheBigbois, but it’s the demo? That’s a weird thing to review! The game’s Steam page describes itself as:
Command the checkpoint in a collapsing city. Screen survivors, manage scarce resources, and hold back the undead. Every choice matters, and one mistake could unleash the plague beyond your walls.
