Xbox now has revealed The second set of games is coming to Game Pass/Game Pass Ultimate subscribers in July 2024, and it’s one of the smaller, less surprising updates we’ve seen – though that’s hardly a bad thing. While not new information, the three new games in the lineup are all unique and compelling title launches in their own way, emblematic of the types of experiences that thrive on Game Pass.
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is a new action RPG from New Zealand studio A44 Games, Dungeons of Hinterberg combines Zelda with Persona and the Austrian Alps, and James wrote that Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess “successfully brings together elements of the tried and true strategy and action genres to deliver something truly unique,” in his review.
