Two Games Are Available Today Across Various Tiers Of Xbox Game Pass (July 9)

We're back with another Xbox Game Pass update for you! Two games are joining the service today — well sort of — one game is new to the Ultimate, Premium and PC tiers, whilst the second is moving down a tier and into XGP Premium.

Tamashika is a zany, fast-paced arcade shooter with some seriously vibey visuals, and if you've never experienced the original Gears of War story, the campaign that started it all (Gears of War: Reloaded) is well worth giving a go if you're subscribed to XGP Premium. Do it for Carmine!

Here's a wee breakdown of these new Xbox Game Pass additions:

Tamashika (Xbox Series X|S, PC, Cloud) - Ultimate, Premium, PC

TAMASHIKA is a fast-paced arcade style corridor shooter with hand drawn animations, precision sound effects and upbeat background music. You get ONE weapon: A semi-automatic pistol, ONE side-arm: A tantō blade, and ONE level: Procedurally generated, layout changes every day.

Gears of War: Reloaded (Xbox Series X|S, PC, Cloud) - New To XGP Premium, Already On Ultimate & PC

Gears of War: Reloaded is a celebration of one of gaming’s most iconic franchises. Featuring 4K resolution, up to 120 FPS and the ultimate multiplayer experience with cross-progression and cross-play across all platforms, this is the definitive way to experience the game that started it all.
