An Epic Fortnight on Game Pass
Xbox has unveiled its new Game Pass additions for the upcoming two weeks. While game availability can vary across subscription tiers, this fortnight's lineup is remarkably strong.
The most anticipated title is Hades II, which concludes its console exclusivity on April 14th with its launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox. On the same day, Replaced will also be released, available on Game Pass for Xbox and PC.
April 14th will be a significant date, and for those seeking more, The Thaumaturge will also join the service. This RPG, developed by Fool’s Theory and published by 11 bit, is known for being a polarizing title. It offers a fascinating world, though its initial gameplay mechanics might be less polished, improving significantly towards the final act.
Leading up to this key date, several games are already available or coming soon: Endless Legend 2 (early access), FBC: Firebreak (lower tiers), and DayZ (all tiers). Tomorrow will see the arrival of Planet Coaster 2, and before the week concludes, Tiny Bookshop, a cozy game about managing a coastal bookstore, will be added to Game Pass on consoles.
For the second half of this fortnight, Game Pass will feature two major additions: Vampire Crawlers on April 21st, the first spinoff from Poncle's Vampire Survivors, and Kiln, Double Fine's new game where players create and battle with animated ceramic pieces. Furthermore, EA Sports NHL 26 will be available starting April 16th.
The list is rounded out with games joining the lower-priced subscription tiers: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered (April 16th), Little Rocket Lab, and Sopa: Tale of the Stolen Potato (both on April 21st). Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is also being added. In summary, many exciting titles are coming to Xbox's subscription service over the next few weeks.
