Xbox Game Pass: All Games Coming Soon & Leaving Soon In August 2021

Dang I had hoped Darksiders would be on there a bit longer.

I hope Hades is good as people say. Really looking forward to playing it. Never played this kind of game before.

@Chaudy Played Hades on Switch and it's utterly sublime, regardless of what genre you are into. Game pass players in for a treat!

@Chaudy it’s amazing. You level up your character after each run and your skills drastically improve as well. Have fun!

@Chaudy Think Dead Cells, but with Greek mythology.

@james_games I'd just take it easy. It's just video games and should be fun, relaxing, challenging and what you make it. But if you are getting stressed and anxiety over the amount of games you "rent" with the service I'd just stop it and buy what you know you will love and play and beat. I can see how that can be an issue. I love game pass because I can try so many different types of genres and indie games and have all the AAA experiences as well. But to each their own.

@james_games I'm the exact opposite haha. I had a PS4 and didn't like their ecosystem or hardware or the corporations stance on cross-play/progression. Tried Game Pass on PC and loved it and was able to bring over all my saves to the Xbox even for some games I had on Steam. Now I'm all into Xbox like the 360 days Have fun gaming!

For me it can go to hell. Don't get me wrong, nice and fun little game, but when playing split screen the resolution goes under 200p, they never patched or addressed the issue. It's basically a half broken game, which is a pity since it could have been a great couch co op game

@james_games @james_games
Most of the games that are added stay for more than 6 months. If you're remotely interested in any one of them you'll have enough time to play and finish it. On top of that Microsoft's and Ea's games are not being delisted so far, so you'd get all the time you need. But I understand you, if you're a very picky gamer with little time to play it may be more beneficial to just buy the game you want and when you'll have had completed trade it.
At least you have a choice with the Xbox, on Ps not really.

Check out Ape Out if you enjoyed Hotline Miami and/or if you like fast paced action games that are incredibly stylish with brilliant music

@james_games If you play a wide variety of online multiplayer games, and your friends also have Xbox, you and your buds end up saving a ton of money. If you play less than 3 single player games per year, then yeah, it's probably not worth it.

@Sunanootoko Holy hell 200p. I totally get why you feel that way then.

@Cherip-the-Ripper
Tbh don't remember the exact resolution right now, may be higher. But I know for a fact that's super blurry and the issue is shared among PS4, Xbox and switch and the developers never bothered to patch it, defo lower than 480p tho. Possibly amazing in split screen, basically unplayable. Won't be missed.

Just picked up the first Psychonauts game for 91p today in the sale (only a couple of days left I think). Hoping the 2nd one is just as good.

I played through Twelve Minutes the night it released and it was great.
Been trying out Recompile for a little bit and it's ok.
Dodgeball Academia is actually a lot of fun!

Psychonauts 2 is pre-loaded and ready to go. I just finished the first game last week for the first time and I loved it. Can't wait for the sequel
