Tackle some small-town horror, plan a heist, and go for pole position in the next batch of Game Pass releases.
By Darryn Bonthuys on
The next batch of new Game Pass titles has been announced, and joining a few previously confirmed titles, fans can expect action, remakes, and fantasy this month. Available today is Those Who Remain, a first-person psychological-thriller where you'll explore the town of Dormont and the horrors lurking in the streets.
On January 18 you can add Turnip Boy Robs a Bank and F1 23 to your library. Not content with just committing tax evasion, Turnip Boy Robs a Bank sees the titular character team up with the Pickled Gang to plan and execute the heist of the century. F1 23 brings the speed and precision of ridiculously quick racing to your home, giving you the chance to earn championship gold in this recreation of the 2023 FIA Formula One World Championship.
On January 19, the Pokemon-like Palworld arrives and throws you into a world full of gun-toting monsters. There are over 100 «Pals» to discover and enslave in this day-one release, as you'll need a factory full of press-ganged critters to keep your armories well-stocked. Go Mecha Ball debuts on January 25, is a twin-stick shooter roguelike shooter, and January 30 closes out the month with the top-down arena-shooter Brotato.
Next month will see Persona 3 Reload, a remake of the classic Atlus game, arrive on February 2, and a few days later on February 6, Anuchard transports you to a fantasy kingdom where you'll embark on a quest to become The Bellwielder of the magical Audros Bell. The first wave of Game Pass releases are now available, and in case you missed the announcement, you can pick up some great games like Resident Evil 2, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and more.
As for departures, only one game is leaving Game Pass this month. Sadly, it's one of the best games of 2023 departing from the service.

Xbox Game Pass Growth Is Slowing According To Industry Analysts
The talk of video game subscription services has come from many different places over the last week or so. You might remember an article we wrote yesterday about statements Ubisoft made about gaming subscription services in the wake of their upcoming Ubisoft+ service. But the “king” of such services is easily the Xbox Game Pass. The point of the service is to make scores of games available to players for just $10 a month. Plus, some games will be “day one releases” of significant gaming titles. Microsoft has been quick to tout the success of their service, but how well is it really doing?

Xbox Game Pass Is Losing One Incredible Game On January 31
Xbox Game Pass is known for its continually expanding library of games, but along with the frequent additions to the subscription service, it does occasionally lose some titles as well. Games that are set to be removed are usually announced alongside additions, so it's often easy to prepare for the changes coming in a month ahead of time. Even with an active subscription, games can't be played after they leave the service, so having enough heads-up for a decent window to play the game tends to ease a lot of potential frustration.
