Xbox Game Pass = More Batman!
Wow, Just wow!
I was a little sceptical of Xbox's idea of Game Pass in the beginning. After all I already pay enough subscriptions each month and my available gaming time doesn't allow me to... Na I'll leave that there, Game Pass keeps going from strength to strength. Not only do you have access to first party titles, but the list of available titles is brilliant!
Here is some new titles coming to the service next month. I'll post the details on each below with the release date but before let's look at a couple I've already had my hands on.
Batman Lego 3. Seriously, how good are Lego games? I don't care how old you are they are good fun.
Wolfenstein 2 is a brilliant sequel and a very much worthy sequel for any fan.
Check out the details below.
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus (May 2)
Play as war-hero BJ Blazkowicz and lead the second American
Revolution by recruiting a band of resistance fighters to hunt down the evil
Frau Engel and dismantle her Nazi war machine. Armed with powerful weapons and
dynamic combat abilities, fight your way across an American landscape twisted
by Nazi occupation. Only you have the guns, guts, and gumption to liberate
America.
Wargroove (May 2)
When war breaks out in the Kingdom of Cherrystone, the young
Queen Mercia must flee her home. Pursued by her foes, the only way to save her
kingdom is travel to new lands in search of allies. But who will she meet along
the way, and what sinister challenges will she face?
Descenders 1.0 (May 7)
Descenders is extreme downhill mountain biking with real
consequences. Power down a variety of increasingly treacherous slopes and
mountains, including icy peaks, dusty canyons, and dense jungles, in more than
half a billion levels across nine different environments. Head out into the
world either on your own, with a set of friends, or with a band of strangers
who are ready to ride alongside you. Will you be King of the Hill?
Surviving Mars (May 9)
You must construct a self-sustaining colony capable of supporting
human life on Mars. This is no walk in the park thanks to the Red Planet’s
hostile environment, limited access to resources, and lack of breathable air –
all not exactly human friendly. To ensure your colony’s survival, you’ll need
to balance everything from life support to resource management and more. But
all is not lost! There are things you can do to help your budding colony along
the way such as researching new technologies and uncovering the secrets of Mars
to make sure your colonists are happy and healthy.
Tacoma (May 9)
The Venturis Corporation wants its AI back. That’s where you
come in. At the heart of Tacoma is the facility’s digital surveillance system,
which has captured 3D recordings of pivotal moments in the crew’s life on the
station. As you explore, echoes of these captured moments surround you. You’ll
use your ability to rewind, fast-forward, and move through the physical space
of these complex, interwoven scenes to examine events from every angle and
reconstruct the multi-layered narrative.
Black Desert (May 9)
Experience fast-paced combat and an immersive story within
an expansive world just waiting to be explored. Black Desert chronicles a
conflict between two rival nations, the Republic of Calpheon and the Kingdom of
Valencia. During your action-packed journey you are accompanied by a Black
Spirit – a companion whose destiny is intertwined with your own – as you
discover the secret of the Black Stones and the history of their corrupting
effects in this massive MMORPG on Xbox One.
For the King (May 10)
Embark on a perilous adventure in this strategic RPG that
blends tabletop and roguelike elements in a challenging journey spanning the
realms. Set off on a single player experience or play cooperatively both online
and locally as you attempt to discover the mystery surrounding the King’s death
and bring order back to the realms. And as an added member benefit, Xbox Game
Pass members can play the game three days before its launch, starting on May 7!
The Surge (May 16)
Welcome to CREO, the megacorporation saving our world!
You’re knocked out by a catastrophic event during your first day on the job and
wake up in a destroyed section of the complex. From robots gone haywire, out of
control augmented co-workers, and rogue AI – everything wants you dead.
Equipped with a heavy-grade exoskeleton, you must defy deadly enemies and huge
bosses in tight, visceral melee combat. Slice limbs off your foes to take
advantage of the next-gen loot system, where you loot what you dismember and
craft new weapons and armors from the spoils!
LEGO Batman 3 (May 16)
The Caped Crusader joins forces with the superheroes of the
DC Comics universe and blasts off to outer space to stop the evil Brainiac from
destroying Earth. Using the power of the Lantern Rings, Brainiac shrinks worlds
to add to his twisted collection of miniature cities from across the universe.
Now the greatest superheroes and the most cunning villains must unite and
journey to different Lantern Worlds to collect the Lantern Rings and stop
Brainiac before it’s too late.
