Got five on it
Microsoft isn’t finished bringing more titles to Xbox Game Pass this month, with five new games announced for the subscription service. These additions to the catalog don’t include today’s launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, either.
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is the big one, another day-one Game Pass addition. The sequel arrives tomorrow, November 20, and looks to be a frightening but strangely alluring return to the Zone. At one time, developer GSC Game World thought Stalker 2 might be impossible on Xbox Series S, but the studio made it work. Meanwhile, the adorable Little Kitty, Big City and PlateUp will also come to the subscription service tomorrow.
The Sekiro-like metroidvania Nine Sols finally comes to consoles on November 26–as well as Game Pass. The game has been a critical darling since launching on PC, as GameSpot sister site Metacritic has Nine Sols with an 83 metascore (at the time of publication).
Last but not least, Aliens: Dark Descent lands on Game Pass on November 27. The real-time tactics title lets you take on Xenomorphs roughly two decades after the original film trilogy.
Microsoft also notes that Game Pass Ultimate subscribers will receive Genshin Impact benefits, such as two Intertwined Fate and 10 Hero’s Wit. The end of this month will also see Game Pass losing nine games, like Rollerdrome.
