Xbox Game Pass, no matter the tier, has hundreds of titles to play, but sometimes, we might not have enough time to devote to a huge, epic RPG.

Thankfully, there are tons of games that you can play and complete in a single or couple of sittings, perfect for those with very busy lives which is, let's face it, most of us.

With that in mind, here are 10 games that you can complete in 10 hours or under. Oh, and of course, earn easy Xbox achievement points in the process.

Assassin’s Creed: Freedom Cry

While Assassin’s Creed: Freedom Cry is technically an expansion to Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Ubisoft also released it as a standalone title. Freedom Cry takes place 15 years after the main game, and you play as Adéwalé, a former Quartermaster for Edward Kenway on the Jackdaw. After being washed up on shore, Adéwalé gets caught up in a slave rebellion that he simply cannot walk away from. Depending on your play style, Assassin’s Creed: Freedom Cry can take between four and 10 hours to finish, and it will be time well spent.

Battlefield V

The single-player campaign for Battlefield V tries something a little different by focusing on four “War Stories” of WWII from British, Norwegian, Senegalese and German perspectives. Honestly, out of all the games I’ve played in this series, this is one of my most memorable and can be finished between six and 10 hours. Then, of course, when the single-player campaign is done, you have the multiplayer that you can jump into, but that lasts for much longer.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)

The Call of Duty series has never been known for its lengthy campaigns, but they often leave a lasting impression nonetheless. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is a reimagining of the game that was originally released in 2007. The first-person action is fantastic, the visuals are lush and certain parts of its story depict the brutal realities of war. All in all, much like Battlefield V, this campaign should last between six and 10 hours. Then there are all the multiplayer offerings if you want to extend your experience.

Firewatch

I can’t say much about Firewatch without giving too much away. But before jumping into it, I knew little and I came out not being able to stop thinking about what I had played. It’s set in the late 80s and is about a park ranger named Henry, who forms a connection with his supervisor, Delilah. I’ll say no more, but it might be the best four to five hours that you spend this week.

***Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice* and *Senua’s Saga***

When I talk about games that make a lasting impression, no game in 2017 made an impact on me like Ninja Theory’s Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice. Again, I’ll be vague to avoid spoilers.

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is about Senua, a Celtic warrior struggling with grief and her mental illness, psychosis. It’s set in a Norse Viking world and has gameplay similar to God of War (2018). Along with its compelling story, its combat can be challenging. It has some well-designed puzzles, and the visuals are stunning. Its 2024 sequel, Hellblade: Senua’s Saga, continues Senua's journey and is a fantastic game in its own right. Each should take no more than seven to nine hours to finish.

Mixtape

I know there’s been a lot of controversy surrounding Mixtape, whether it could be considered a proper game or an interactive movie - some it forced. It’s characters may or may not be likeable depending on which side of the fence you sit Whether or not those who made the game lived through the 90s as teens, I don't know but I look at it like this, it’s an easy 100% gamerscore completion in just three to four hours.

***Oxenfree* and *Oxenfree II: Lost Signals***

2016’s Oxenfree is quite possibly my favourite indie game of all time. When a teenage girl, Alex, brings her stepbrother, Jonas, to an overnight beach party with friends, events take an unexpected turn for the worse. This is a supernatural thriller like no other, and its story will have you thinking one way before flipping it upside down. Its 2023 sequel, Lost Signals, tells a different supernatural story, but it’s another banger. Yes, I’m being deliberately vague again, for good reason. The original game should take about four to five hours to finish, and the sequel six to seven. However, both games have alternate endings, and certain events may differ in a new campaign.

Unpacking

Unpacking is a true, unexpected delight. It’s a puzzle game that tells the subtle story of a person's life from 1997 to 2018 through moving house and unpacking. Trust me, the game is far more interesting than it sounds. It’s one of the most relaxing and heartwarming games you’ll ever play. Once you start Unpacking, it’s a blissful journey that will only last three to four hours, but it's a game that you’ll be talking about and revisiting for years to come.
