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.
Microsoft's on-demand game library has expanded to include nine titles since the turn of the month. The latest Xbox Game Pass arrival is Harold Halibut, a unique narrative-driven adventure with stop-motion animation, which reached the service on April 16 as a day-one release.
Mere hours following that launch, the company announced Wave 2 of its Xbox Game Pass April 2024 lineup. The newly confirmed additions to the platform are Orcs Must Die! 3, EA Sports NHL 24, and Have a Nice Death. The second half of the batch includes Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, Another Crab's Treasure, and Manor Lords. That latter trio has already been known to be coming to Microsoft's content library, as it exclusively consists of upcoming titles that their publishers announced as day-one Xbox Game Pass releases.
