Xbox Game Pass Adds Hectic Genre Hybrid With 'Very Positive' Reviews

Five more games have been confirmed for Xbox Game Pass as part of the latest ID at Xbox showcase, including one that can be played today. When it comes to new Xbox Game Pass games, fans are treated to a huge variety of titles. Some of the games that are added to Xbox Game Pass are massive, AAA games with blockbuster budgets, but other times, they are smaller-scale indie games.

Xbox Game Pass offers access to hundreds of games, from new releases like Starfield to classics, playable on Xbox consoles and PCs. While the service typically starts at $10 a month, savvy users can enjoy it for free through Microsoft Rewards. Microsoft Rewards is a loyalty programme for those who use Microsoft products like Bing and Xbox. By spending about 10 minutes daily, you can accumulate enough points for a complimentary month of Xbox Game Pass, along with other rewards.

Xbox Game Pass is making four more games available to subscribers, including a day-one launch title and three additions for Core members.

Reviews are in for the latest upcoming day-one Xbox Game Pass game, and they're largely positive.
