New games are being added each month, though there has for the first time been one game removed from the service. It will be replaced by Game Pass Core, which was described as an 'evolution' of the previous service and gives players access to online console multiplayer alongside over 25 games.Xbox Game Pass for PC is two things: firstly, it's quite a mouthful and secondly, it's the new subscription service by Microsoft that gives you access to a bunch of games from the Microsoft Store for a monthly price. Microsoft announced a fundamental change to its subscription services earlier in July as Xbox Live Gold will cease to exist as of September. The last batch of games added to Xbox Game Pass included Need for Speed: Unbound, The Bookwalker, Bramble: The Mountain King, and more. Intended to be a relaxed and charming puzzler, it certainly appeared to accomplish that goal as IGN gave it an 8/10 in our review.įive titles leave the service on July 31: Dreamscaper Expeditions: Rome The Ascent Two Point Campus and Marvel's Avengers. Toem: A Photo Adventure, a hand-drawn adventure game centred around the delights of photography, is another highlight. IGN awarded Celeste a 10/10 in our review, saying: 'Celeste’s incredible platforming, innumerable secrets, and emotionally genuine story make it a surprise triumph.'

The platforming adventure game Celeste is perhaps the biggest addition coming in this slate of games, as players take on the role of Madeline as she unravels the secret of a mysterious mountain and overcomes her own limitations.
