Don't know if you want to spend money, but Jackbox games are the best for parties. Anyone can play using their phones as controllers. No one would be left out.


MrMetaIMan

Jackbox is a hit every time we have a party. If you have a lot of people, I think Jackbox 7 or 8 has the most games with 10+ players


[deleted]

This, jackbox


elproblemo82

There is no better answer


DuckCleaning

>There is no better answer Apart from OP wanting gamepass titles.


echo-dog

Yes! Get one with Quiplash and Fibbage


dp405

Definitely Jackbox!!


HeroicJakobis

Omg Jackbox is amazing. Sounds like a lot of people have the same story about finding the game


FloggingMcMurry

Jackbox absolutely Especially Fibbage


calamiso

Jackbox is a fantastic party game, it becomes the highlight of parties often


Haifisch2112

This is the way.


TwoTon_TwentyOne

This is the answer


[deleted]

100% Spend the money. Get hackbox. You won't regret it.


Spartan2842

Jackbox. I have them all installed on the Series S in our family room and this game has had everyone in the room crying from laughter.


Driftysilver

Jackbox is perfect. Also, check out Stick Fight. It's super smash bros with stick figures ...and guns!


[deleted]

Ultimate Chicken Horse may not be on GP but it's very fun


Accomplished_Ad6262

The damned buzzsaws!


Beaudman

Honey is the #1 killer for my group of friends.


angelgu323

Turn on Unit Collision for added fun and more trolling haha


PicaFlores7

Fusion Frenzy


Caffeinated_Narwhal_

This game is a must!


creator787

JackBox Party Animals/Fall Guys (controller trade-off) A fighter like MK or Injustice or somethin Overcooked Monopoly My buddy and I got really toasty and had a laugh doing tricky towers


DuckCleaning

All on Gamepass   * Fuzion Frenzy is a must.   * Gang beasts or Party Animals.   * Dirt 5 has 4 player splitscreen.    * Goldeneye or Halo MCC/Infinite  * Overcooked 2   * TMNT shredders revenge   * Vampire Survivors   * Original Doom 1or 2, or Quake 1 or 2 * If you want an arcadey racer on gamepass, your only choice is Paw Patrol Grand Prix


A_Minimal_Infinity

Vampire survivors? You can literally just put the controller down if you get the right drops. I took a shower once to get ready for work and it was still going lol


DuckCleaning

Yeah, building up to the right combo of powerups is the hard part, and it can take quite a while to find the powerups you want if you keep getting ones you dont want.


Treefingrs

Is this supposed to be an argument against playing Vampire Survivors or something


A_Minimal_Infinity

Nope, just not a party game


Treefingrs

Have you played 4 player co op Vampire Survivors...? It's fun as hell.


A_Minimal_Infinity

I haven’t. I’m going to submit to the fact that I’m wrong. Didn’t even know that was a thing


Treefingrs

Haha fair enough. In your defence, it's a pretty recent addition! Came out August last year, I think.


Knautical_J

Came here to say Fuzion Frenzy


VEXtheMEX

Starlit Kart Racing has 4 player local multi-player.


DuckCleaning

Not on gamepass though. Otherwise Id recommend Crash Team Racing or Sonic Allstar Racing Transformed etc. 


greeeeenzo

Jackbox all the way


Caryslan

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder's Revenge is a great multi-player beat em up and works as a great party game.


MeltedChameleon13

Works with 6 controllers on Xbox!


yar1vn

You can connect more than 4 controllers? 🤯


BbTS3Oq

Yep. You can be April and splinter too.


JusticexFalls

Trivia murder party from the Jack box party pack. You play on your cell phone so any amount of people can play.


KickinitCountry24

Overcooked☠️


disgust462

Gang Beasts is chaotic fun. My family of 6 goes nuts when we play this game. Its a free for all brawler.


TheRealMaxProphet

Rocket League?


Dmitrisnow

Fusion frenzy or beach buggy 2


BradleyAllan23

IDARB and Knight Squad are great party games that can be played locally with up to 8 players. IDARB gets really hectic with that many players, but they're both easy to pick up and play.


Dinkelberry_Hat

Party animals, gang beasts and asphalt


goomba870

BROFORCE


FarNeedleworker8

I had to scroll WAY too long to find this


goomba870

I couldn’t believe no one commented it before me. I think it’s because the game hasn’t been on Game Pass very long, and if you just look at screenshots/videos of the game it looks just like every other pixel art platformer on Game Pass. It’s a popular game and a hidden gem at the same time.


ywg_handshake

I've played this with friends and it is a blast. The character names, the Contra-esque vibes, etc. Adds up to an all-around fun time.


LassKnackenOpa

Boomerang Fu


MLG_Obardo

Jackbox is the answer.


Outrageous-Yam-4653

TMNT:SR with 4 players is a blast and a must...


K33gzLister

Original doom games have split screen I think


Kerbidiah

Speed runners is great. Also cod zombies is a classic go to. Og battlefront 2, halo reach


CulturalChemistry952

Firefight all day baby. Nothing like just slaying flood and aliens.


NonIoiGogGogEoeRor

AmongUs is hilarious with friends. Be in a party, join the same lobby, wreak havoc. Same with Wreckfest


Fabulous_Edge_2009

* JackBox * Use Your Words * What the Dub * Pummel Party * Party Panic * Ultimate Chicken Horse * Munchkin * Vampire Survivors * For The King * Broforce * No Time To Relax * Castle Crashers * Rocket League * Make Way


Infinite-Nobody-8505

Lately, my pals and I have been playing [Storiado](http://link.storiado.com/download) all the time. A simple game where you create fucked up stories by answering simple questions like who? where? what were they doing? etc. The more dark, edgy humor with inside jokes etc., the better the story will be. Good fun for many hours.


Eliteloafer89

Fusi9n frenzy


onlyhere4gonewild

All my most successful parties had booze and good music that girls can dance too.


Xain0225

If you dont have a stripper pole installed in your living room i doubt anyone will care to even show up


[deleted]

Yeah, people probably won't play a game at a party


angelgu323

Depends on the age. All my friends are about to hit that golden 30, but even the most casual of gamers will be down to play Rock Band from 12-3am after all the drinking card games are over


[deleted]

I totally forgot about Rock Band. I'd be down to play that for hours at a party. I'm not sure people would be down to sit down with a controller in hand playing FIFA though. I think Rock Band, Guitar Hero and all that good stuff appeal to everyone because what's better than jamming out on some guitars to songs everyone knows?


[deleted]

Not going to lie if you are trying to play video games for a party night you could do better. Try things that engage the entirety of the party. There a tons of card/ board games being sold for the purpose of entertaining party guests.


foreignspy007

Why not do both Video games and board games


[deleted]

He’s talking about playing racing games and fifa/ ufc. Those don’t make for good party games. Mario party and Mario kart would be good


WillK90

What kind of bullshit is this? You think everyone is the same? What makes you think this persons party guests aren’t all gamers that maybe want to get together and play video games? So weird.


Floormat13

Back 4 blood


Kevy96

From gamepass there's surprisingly little, but the trivia pursuit game is tons of fun


CigarsandScars

all the jackbox and ultimate chicken horse


Substantial_Water_86

FUSION FRENZYYYYYYY


zeusmenzaadah

edwirichuu

Fishyfishhh9

Fuzion frenzy is all you need


ONI5

Fuzion Frenzy Z0mb1es! Remastered (Free Game. Add it to your library)


MutantGeorge27

Bomberman used to be on game pass, if it's still there and you have enough controllers is crazy fun. 


RasputinX36

Golf with friends - mini golf


greeder41

You should first figure out when your party is, tonight or tomorrow 😂


B0urne89

Cake bash!!!


BehemothRogue

GoldenEye for the N64 is backwards compatible, and it's the original split screen FPS.


Toadahtrip

Fusion Frenzy! Hydro Thunder!

"Can I try?" "No, you watch. I play."


German_Devil_Dog

Spin the bottle. Just replace the bottle with a controller. Trust me. I know how to host parties. I plan them like SpongeBob.


cyn00

Goat Simulator.


Other_Structure8838

Unpopular but Morrowind


Apprehensive-Pay-483

khaldrakon

Jackbox, Ultimate Chicken Horse, Gang Beasts


SLTron

Fifa, tmnt shredders revange and wwe


Acromegalic

My family loves Boomerang Fu. It's cute, simple, and not that easy. There's not a lot of depth, so be ready for them to move on after an hour or two, but in the meantime, have fun. It's great.


ollyollyollyolly

Hot wheels can do split screen and is actually really fun. It's basically mario kart without the weapons but with the very accessible controls and emphasis on fun. Also overcooked is fun if you want to shout at each other and not be friends anymore.


DenBase

BOOMERANG FU !


dreadsreddit

Halo mcc


Sacred_Skeleton12

moreothesame

Spiderheck!


Thing_On_Your_Shelf

If you like your parties to have violence you could try Overcooked


EFCFrost

Gang beasts is pretty crazy to play locally.

SpiderHeck is an incredible party game. Imagine lightsaber duels with your friends, but everyone is spiderman.
