Everything Coming to Xbox Game Pass Later This Month
Xbox Game Pass is hands-down one of the best services that PC and Xbox gamers can subscribe to, and Microsoft just revealed a new batch of games that Game Pass holders will be able access with their subscriptions this month.
Starting April 16, Microsoft says the newly released Harold Halibut will be available as a day-one release for PC, Xbox, and Xbox Cloud gaming. It will be followed by Orcs Must Die! 3 on April 17, which will be available to subscribers on PC, Xbox, and the cloud, as well as EA Sports NHL 24 for console subscribers on April 18.
A few days later, on April 23, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes will debut on Game Pass as a day-one launch for cloud, console, and PC subscribers. Two days later, on April 25, Aggro Crab Games’ soulslike Another Crab’s Treasure will debut as a day-one release on Xbox Game Pass for cloud, console, and PC subscribers.
April 26 will also see the release-day arrival of the current top wishlisted game on Steam, Manor Lords, which will be released on Xbox Game Preview for PC. This city-building game is easily one of the most anticipated of the year, and it currently ranks above other highly anticipated PC releases like Hades 2 and Hollow Knight: Silksong on Valve’s PC gaming platform.
On April 30, Microsoft will round out the April Game Pass releases with Have a Nice Death, which will be available for cloud, console, and PC Game Pass subscribers.
The unfortunate thing about Game Pass, though, is that sometimes games also leave the subscription service, and this month, six games will depart, including 7 Days to Die, Besiege, EA Sports NHL 22, Loot River, Pikuniku, and Ravenlok. You’ll be able to get 20 percent off your purchase of these games to keep them in your library, though. You can subscribe to Xbox Game Pass to take advantage of these free titles, plus hundreds more.
