Coming Soon to Xbox Game Pass for Console: The Long Dark, Deliver Us The Moon, Gato Roboto, and More

Megan Spurr, Community Manager, Xbox Game Pass: "I know it feels like we were just here, sharing the new games, new Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Perks – that’s not déjà vu (or that none of us understand the passage of time anymore). We’re back because we have even more games!"

[FlavorLav01]

Great, more indie filler for game pass!? Just what it needed more of.... can’t wait for next gen and more of the same

[crazyCoconuts]

Just wait until a game gets added that you want to play and subscribe for a month or two...

[monkey602]

I usually sign off for a few months and get it at a promotional price later with a build up of games I want to try. Then get about 3 months pass for a fraction of the price.

[FlavorLav01]

Already tried it out bud, I got 2 Xbox one X on sale, tried out the few games I wanted on GP and now I just use them for the 4K Blu ray player, otherwise I constantly find myself on PS or PC even to play better versions of everything but Ori and Masterchief. Xbox gonna have to show me some heavy hitter new games to justify replacing the OneX I already have for there new launch. Otherwise I’ll wait for a heavy sale on this new one while I’m playing up my exclusives on PS5. Just saying Xbox, I’ve yet to see why I NEED this new console...

[Kabaneri]

Gamepass is by far the best games subscription at the moment.

[Kingthrash360]

Why?

[FlavorLav01]

Might be, but not everyone is looking for ANOTHER subscription service, full of a bunch of indies titles. “Service” gaming provide publishers every reason they need to release unfinished products that can always be patched later. Being into campaigns, I like super finished, well optimized games. It’ll be interesting to see what we get from MS 1st party this time around considering they’ll all be included in game pass....good quality games or unfinished GAAS? Hoping for amazing single player games please MS

[mandingo]

We get it flavorlav01 u don’t like Xbox try not to make it so obvious

[Ghostbob]

It depends on the month of what games come out! sometimes it better sometime PS Now is better but it's defiantly not by far the best games subscription that is fanboy talk.

@Flavor

"It’ll be interesting to see what we get from MS 1st party this time around considering they’ll all be included in game pass"

All microsoft 1st party have been on gamepass since around January 2018

[King_Noctis]

Or how about Gears Tactics which is coming at the end of the month? Or Minecraft Dungeons which is coming very soon?

For $10 per month, you can’t expect them to give you all the newest AAA game every months.

[MadLad]

I have both, and there's sure as hell a lot of indie filler on PS Now.
Oh, but sometimes they grace you with a 2 year old exclusive.

Like I said, I use and enjoy both. I got a Playstation Pro late this generation, and was able to make use of PS Now; but it's not gamepass. It's hilarious you gloss over the offering of brand new games like Outer Worlds, day one, and recent 1st party titles.

And that's just the beta of the PC version, whereas the Xbox service offers even more.

[MadLad]

@generic

You're an exercise in being completely biased.

[Software_Lover]

All devs start somewhere.
My favorite game right now is "A Plagues Tale: Innocence"

I would not have know about it without Gamepass.

[ElementX]

So you never saw any of the dozens of articles/reviews for Plague Tale? N4G was full of them.

[Software_Lover]

@elementX

Im not on N4G everyday. Sometimes for months at a time.

[PyroMessiah86]

Deliver Us To The Moon looks great. Don't let 'whats popular' rule you. Some great little unknown games out there

[coolbeans]

Personally? I didn't care for Deliver Us The Moon. But I agree with your overall message here.

[aconnellan]

Lol so MS cops flak for having their first party games on Game Pass day 1 - which are AAA games such as Halo, SoT, Forza, Gears, Minecraft, etc - and then they get in trouble for having indie games on there? Make up your mind

[MadLad]

We are mandated to crap on MS around here, no matter what they do. You didn't get the email?

If they offer their exclusives via gamepass, they're just devaluing the worth of their IPs. Oh yeah, and all the IPs are mandated to suck as well.
Also, when you add quality indie and AA content to the library, that means gamepass sucks, and is only throwing out filler content, so gamepass is obviously overpriced garbage.

None of this equates to gamepass being worthwhile, of course. Damn you, MS!

[Knushwood Butt]

You forgot about Bleeding Edge.

[shuvam09]

I've been following the same pattern since it arrived on PC...
3 months gamepass every 6 months...
Seems worth it...

[DJStotty]

@Flavor

Indie filler lmao, you do realise there are around 200+ games on game pass right? (253 as of time of writing - console only, not including PC) (Nier - automata was recently added)

There are plenty of AA, AAA games available out of the 253, a few indie additions is not even a grain of sand on the beach.

[Futureshark]

These are all ID@Xbox games, well maybe worth a try for 5 mins as its game pass.

[MadLad]

I spent so much time with the Long Dark. Fantastic game.

[Atom666]

Didn't you see the other comments? You're only allowed to play these games for 5 minutes. Kindly follow the rules, Mr. Cruz.

[timotim]

Almost pulled the trigger on The Long Dark a couple times! Thanks Game Pass.

[Bronxs15]

I’m disappointed by these new additions.

[--bienio--]

Guys seriously question?? Gears Tactics steam 49.99£ or game pass Pc?? I’m really tempted to go for game pass but I’m still not sure 🤔 Also if I decide to go for game pass? Can I paid for all year?

[timotim]

Try it out on Game pass first...if you like it and it runs great...I say buy it through XGP using the discounted price...win/win.

[NeoGamer232]

I have GamePass Ultimate and don't regret it at all. There are also a lot of other strategy games on GamePass PC so it is worthwhile. Battlefleet Gothic, Age of Wonders Planetfall, Imperator Rome, Age of Empires Definitive Edition, Age of Empires II Definitive Edition, Halo Wars, Halo Wars 2, and Rise of Nations.

If you like RTS and Turn-Based Strategy GamePass will give you thousands of hours.

[shuvam09]

No point buying MS games when gamepass can be had for 6 months at that price...

[DJStotty]

So by subbing to gamepass you are just "renting" the games for 6 months as opposed to owning them for life.

The choice is yours. Me personally, i am subbing to gamepass as it is more beneficial for me, but if i want to own a game i will just buy it using the gamepass discount.

[NeoGamer232]

This is a slower month, gives me time to go back and catch up on some of the others on the backlog list that are on GamePass before they disappear!

[Gunstar75]

Wow... Indie games can be great experiences. You down voters sound like entitled little brats who only play games from multinationals.

Everyone has to start somewhere and these indies will be the AAA devs of the future.

I guess you arent really gamers. Just AAA industry fodder.

[TheHateTheyGive]

Terrible, gamepass is going downhill, but its still worth the 15.00 a month. cant beat it when you get both the pc and console version for the dame price. Age of Empires Definitive Edition, Age of Empires II Definitive Edition, makes it well worth it.

[patterson]

Xbox gamers scrounging through the dumpster, “Oh look I found a french fry! Totally worth it.”

[MadLad]

Gamepass is actually a fantastic service. I just went through PS Now's catalogue and, unless you're looking for PS3 games, or the odd, older, Sony exclusive, there's a lot of garbage to be had on there.

I'd say I'm interested in at least 60% of the games on offer with gamepass, and that more than justifies the price.

[FloydianAndroid]

Anyone who hates on gamepass is a troll. It’s the best value in gaming. Ps now is a joke by comparison.
