It's been confirmed that SteamWorld Heist 2 will be a day one Xbox Game Pass game when it releases on August 8. Xbox Game Pass has had an impressive year so far, kicking things off with the smash hit Palworld and keeping the momentum going strong with a steady string of high-quality day one releases. Luckily for subscribers, there's no sign that Xbox Game Pass' momentum is slowing down anytime soon.
Xbox Game Pass Confirms 7 More Games Coming in April 2024
02.04.2024 - 19:12 / gamerant.com / Xbox Game Pass / Harold Halibut / Dalton Cooper
Microsoft has confirmed seven more games coming to the Xbox Game Pass subscription service in the first half of April 2024. Microsoft has already added a few games to Xbox Game Pass as part of the April 2024 lineup, with a new one available as of today.
On April 1, Xbox Game Pass subscribers were treated to Ark: Survival Ascend, a revamped version of the popular open world survival game, this time built with the power of Unreal Engine 5. Now those with an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription can check out the Cloud version of F1 23 (other versions of the game have been available for some time), while all Game Pass subscribers can now play Superhot: Mind Control Delete regardless of what tier they're signed up for.
April 2024 has already been an exciting time for Xbox Game Pass, but there's even more to look forward to in the next couple of weeks. LEGO 2K Drive is coming on April 3, followed by Lil Gator Game on April 4, EA Sports PGA Tour for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers on April 4, Kona on April 9, Botany Manor on April 9, Shadow of the Tomb Raider Definitive Edition on April 11, and Harold Halibut on April 16.
Out of these, the two that will likely drum up the most interest among Xbox Game Pass subscribers are Botany Manor and Harold Halibut, as they are the two day one games coming to the service in the first half of April 2024. Botany Manor is a puzzle game with a plant theme, while Harold Halibut is a striking story-focused adventure game with a unique claymation art style. Both games have a lot of potential, and it will be exciting to see if either one lives up to the hype come their Game Pass debuts.
While those seven games are the ones that Microsoft focused on with its Wave 1 announcement, there are at least three other titles coming to Game Pass in April 2024 that went unmentioned. Set to be part of the Game Pass April 2024 Wave 2 lineup, subscribers can look forward to Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes on April 23, Soulslike Another Crab's Treasure on April 25, and Manor Lords on April 26.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is the highest tier of Microsoft's flagship game subscription service that offers over 100 game titles that you can play with a single purchase, making it one of the most outstanding value propositions of the Xbox ecosystem to date.

Xbox Game Pass Users, Play These Six Games Before They Leave On April 30
While Xbox Game Pass is set to gain a selection of fantastic Day-One releases in the back half of April, subscribers may want to act fast to play the six games leaving the service in the coming weeks. To offset the amount of titles the platform offers, Microsoft always removes a handful of games whenever it brings in a new selection for players to experience. While that might sound like a bad deal, it makes sense given the already massive catalog on offer and users can still pick up the departing games for a discount before they eventually leave.
