Xbox has announced the next wave of games coming to Game Pass in late April.
It begins today with the release of Harold Halibut across cloud, PC and Xbox Series X/S. «A visually arresting, warm-hearted tale of a gofer searching for his purpose, Harold Halibut flounders amongst endless fetch-quests and waffle,» reads our Eurogamer Harold Halibut review.
Then later in the month the subscription service will receive the likes of Manor Lords on PC (26th April), and the day one releases Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes (23rd April) and Another Crab's Treasure (25th April).
The full list of games coming to Xbox and PC Game Pass Ultimate are:
Eiyuden Chronicle is the long-awaited spiritual successor to Suikoden, though its creator Yoshitaka Murayama sadly passed away in February. The game also met with controversy due to unexpected shipping costs on Kickstarter.
However, it's set to be a beautiful RPG in a 2.5D world with — as the name implies — over a hundred heroes to assign to your team.
Another Crab's Treasure, meanwhile, is an amusing Soulslike featuring a crab protagonist wearing trash to protect from enemies.
They'll both be followed by Manor Lords, a new medieval strategy city-builder.
Three more games are also coming to Game Pass Core on 23rd April: Deep Rock Galactic, Superhot: Mind Control Delete, and Wreckfest.
The following games will be leaving Xbox Game Pass on 30th April.

Microsoft has revealed the next batch of titles coming to Xbox Game Pass for console, PC and Xbox Cloud Gaming.
The Xbox Game Pass library has expanded to include Have a Nice Death. The stylish and scintillating roguelike is the 17th new title to reach Xbox Game Pass in April 2024.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate has added Manor Lords to its thriving content library. This is the fifth day-one release on Microsoft's subscription service in April 2024, as well as the 56th title to reach Xbox Game Pass Ultimate since the turn of the year.
Xbox Game Pass members can play Another Crab's Treasure as part of their subscription starting today, April 25. This day-one addition to the Xbox Game Pass library arrives in the form of a colorful action RPG with an important message about environmental preservation.
Five of the top 10 most wishlisted games on Steam are coming to Xbox Game Pass as day one releases, including eagerly awaited titles such as Manor Lords and Hollow Knight: Silksong. This marks an excellent time to be an Xbox Game Pass subscriber, as Microsoft keeps adding several amazing games to its subscription service.
Xbox Game Pass members can play Orcs Must Die! 3 as part of their subscriptions starting today. This is the tenth title to reach Xbox Game Pass in April 2024, and the 51st one since the turn of the year.
Seven new games are joining in the second half of April, including four new releases. Xbox also announced three games coming to Game Pass Core. However, six games will leave Microsoft’s subscription service at the end of the month.
One of 2023's best indie games, Planet of Lana, is coming to PlayStation and Nintendo Switch almost a full year after its initial release. Planet of Lana first launched in late May 2023 as a day one Xbox Game Pass title, simultaneously releasing on PC, but unfortunately leaving Switch and PlayStation gamers waiting for another year.
Microsoft has announced the next games coming to Xbox Game Pass.
Microsoft has announced the second wave of April 2024 Xbox Game Pass additions. The upcoming batch consists of six titles, some of which will only be available to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers.
Manor Lords is currently the most wishlisted game on Steam ahead of games like Hades II and Black Myth: Wukong, having surpassed two million wishlists earlier this year.
Xbox Game Pass is already loaded with unique games but possibly the most visually striking is now available and users should definitely have it on their radar. As a means of keeping the Xbox player base satisfied with a constant string of new releases, in lieu of many stellar exclusive titles, Microsoft makes it a point of constantly adding inventing indie games to the ever-growing catalog of downloadable experiences. Some of these are, obviously, better than others but most of the time, they serve as a reminder of why AAA games can become tired.
