Fakin' It XL, Jackbox Games' party game where one player, the Faker, never sees the prompt and has to bluff, is listed by Xbox Wire for November 12, 2026 with Smart Delivery and Xbox Play Anywhere. Its Steam page currently lists November 11.

Fakin' It XL, the new standalone party game from Jackbox Games, is coming to Xbox this week. Xbox Wire lists it for Thursday, November 12, 2026 in its "Next Week on Xbox" roundup (November 6, 2026), tagged Smart Delivery and Xbox Play Anywhere. The Microsoft Store shows a release at 14:00 UTC, which is 3 p.m. in Paris. On PC, the Steam page currently lists a release date of November 11, 2026 for Windows, macOS and Linux.

One player never gets the prompt

Each round, players receive a simple instruction on their phone or device, such as "raise your hand if you've ever pretended to like a gift you hated." Except one player, the Faker, never got the prompt and has to blend in. Once the real prompt is revealed, the Faker needs a convincing lie ready, while everyone else tries to work out who was bluffing.

What's new in the XL version

According to the official store description, Fakin' It XL keeps the rounds and content of the original Fakin' It, draws on the structure of Fakin' It All Night Long, and adds new content and new question types. A new option at the start of each game lets the group choose between playing in the same room or remotely over a stream or video call, with round types adapted to each setup.
