That's great news. Hopefully this means you won't be complaining in these Game Pass threads every month anymore.

I noticed there's a PC version only shown in the image. And a console version shown for console, cloud and PC.

That does suck but I guess expected?! You can buy the game at a discount from MS Store if you really want to.
If it's like FIFA or other annual sports franchises, the outgoing edition should be very cheap at this point.

Ah....I see what you mean. Weird.
Vampire survivors is goty but it was 2$ on steam.... and it was kinda better in early access. They added a bit too much crap
You see where it says ‘console’ on the banner?
Good. It won’t launch at $2 on console.

Cant wait to try Vampire Savior. Was going to Gamepass PC it, but didn't bother as people say moving around using a mouse is shit. However, I was going to test it out using it as I dont have a PC gamepad.
Thank god for an Xbox release.

Unless you are totally itching to buy a low key or indie game asap, always test the waters waiting for a Game Pass release as some of them come day one on GP. Dont bother wasting time pre-ordering as a Game Pass announcement is random. Sometimes it'll be months and months ahead as a planned GP promo. Other times, a game gets a last minute GP announcement near launch.Damn I was likely going to buy return to monkey island soon. Guess I can once again save my money.

Yeah I took one look at my roommate playing it and was like...I will be addicted to that game.
They got me when they said they were gonna increase the price, I caved.
And they raised the price by two dollars lmao

The big names already went to GP. Microsoft knows that, today, the service is more for the passive agressive player, not to really catch new subscribers.
They're the anti-Amazon

Really needs more of that AAA goodness, I've missed talent trees and slow waking segments soooo much.

Dang that's another great scoring game that goes on the "to play" list.

I YT'ed Ghost Song to see what it's like. Seems like a good looking indie Metroidvania.

Quite a few of the humble games coming over to GP. #1 challenge of GP: Trying to find time to play all of the games that look interesting.

Tell me about it. I left Prodeus in the middle when Plague Tale came out, need to get back to that. Still going through Persona 5 Royal a few in-game days at a time, just finished Signalis a day or two ago. There's the new Amnesia game I've never played, Return to Monkey Island is coming in a few days, Pentiment and Somerville coming soon.

Norco's console port and game pass finally got a date after being delayed unexpectedly last month. Another November release.

I'm still working on Plague Tale which I'm having a lot of fun with (they really out did themselves with the new ways of getting the rats out of the way). There are always at least 3 or 4 games a month that I want to get to, but I end up only completing a couple of them.

It is. And then I've got things on PS+ I want to get to as well. These sub services are making it too good for cheap ass bastards.

Oh god you people. There are tons of other good games that aren't triple A. You know that, right?So much for the best deal in gaming with triple A banger exclusives day and date...

I get some of the complaint about the level of games coming to Gamepass recently (although depending on what you like, this month is actually pretty stellar) but this year is easily one of the worst 2 or 3 years for games in my 30+ years of gaming. Covid has turned this year into a ghost town games wise.

We literally just got A Plague Tale: Requiem, SCORN, and Persona 5 Royal like 2 weeks ago. Not to mention indie gems like Signalis and Ghost Song.So much for the best deal in gaming with triple A banger exclusives day and date...

Well…. time to fire up the Xbox again.
Oh, he knows. He's played AA games like Stray and F.I.S.T. and claims to have enjoyed them.
He's pretty much just trolling

Checked out Tianding last night. It’s an average Metroidvania in a sea of average Metroidvanias. Worth sleeping on.Legend of Tianding is the highlight for the month but people here tend to sleep when presented with a good game.
Another weak GamePass haul. It is seriously starting to feel like a rebranded, more expensive, games with gold…

Just beat scorn. Incredibly atmospheric. The combat wasn't as bad as I thought. Very creepy and surreal at times. Next up plague tale

Preload? I'm sure it's not mentioned on the coming soon for Gamepass either.

Somerville on the 15th, Pentiment on the 15th and Norco on the 17th. Story focused gaming heaven.

I hope Pentiment goes well against projections. It's probably not for me, but I really like Xbox taking a chance on a small project and giving the team that exercise opportunity. (I wish all three console manufacturers were taking small chances like this, particularly with their brands that are sitting on the shelves unused.)

What are these projections you speak of?
