Oh, right. Those are two different games.

Microsoft should keep all Yakuza games in Game Pass all the time - ā€œplay all Yakuza games with Game Passā€ is an attractive slogan.

And Peppa the Pig and Paw Patrol :fire:

Obviously not :joy:

I personally don’t understand why people want to make Gold better. Sometimes it feels like some people want to scrap Game Pass and just keep Gold with more better games like PS+.

People should just migrate to Game Pass from the Gold. Essentially the only reason to keep Gold on Xbox is if you play COD (main multiplayer), because all other big games that require online subscription are F2P at this point.

  • Ovewatch is F2P
  • Apex is F2P
  • Warzone is F2P
  • Fortnite is F2P
  • Halo is F2P

I don’t know if GTA Online is F2P though

Plus if soemone doesnt like Yakuza like me ( I put 14 hours into so I tried to like it) the first half of the month doesnt have anything for me just hope second half does

Looks like solasta just dropped on gamepass as well

Several indie games it seems, could be some good ones. But if those aren’t your jam, yeah there’s not much else when it comes to bigger titles.

Very odd to add yakuza and not say oost judgment which would have been a bigger get.

Still great to see yakuza 0 back though mastepriece of a game.

ā€œPlay all Yakuza games on Game Passā€ is a powerful slogan. A lot of marketing is around that too (banner in Japan for example). Eventually I think they might have ā€œPlay all Persona games on Game Passā€ too.

Personally, I believe that Microsoft estimated (using the numbers) that smaller newer games move the subscriptions more than the older bigger games. Kinda makes sense to be honest. Outside forum dwellers, who cares about the game released 1 year ago? Paw Patrol is probably more attractive than Tales of whatever.

I think Tales of Arise still has a chance of releasing on GP this year. It hasn’t been out for a full year yet and even though I often compare it to Scarlet Nexus, that is a new IP and Tales is a way more established IP. Probably harder to get, more expensive. Although expensive shouldn’t be a word for MS to worry about, but could also be BN just doesn’t want to.

Also regarding GwG, I think people who still stick to it without moving to Game Pass just don’t care about the offered games at all and does not even probably download them either.

My guess is Sega is moving away from judgement due to the issues with the actors talent agency

Y’all think co-op games are what consistently does well on Game Pass but my hot take is that those silly simulators are probably growing the service more :sob::skull:

It’s why I’m surprised MS still haven’t invested in studios familiar with simulators, might be next in line

Solasta is an incredible get for me.

Pure CRPG, and although I’m partial to story over gameplay in these kinds of games, I can still enjoy a game that is more focused on the combat. I just bought this on sale on Steam last week, but it was for the future since my PC is too old to run it now,I’m not mad about it though.

The great Shadowrun: Dragonfall will be put on a little hiatus while I try something shiny and new.
