All Game pass announcements from Show (Present and Future)

E3yL_78UcAQrt7e



Diverse list of games with multiple dayone games
 
My friend who owns PS5 liked the show and want a subscription like GP, So that he can try out unique looking games 12 minutes. Somerville nd all without spending money.

He bought Ratchet now saving money for Horizon FW if it comes otherwise Farcry 6.

I looked at him and smile coz i can experience all these unique games without spending extra and buy Horizon too.

On Xbox, i have more unique and diverse games to play than any other consoles imo.

Great list of games that will cost next to nothing to play. Incredible. Can't wait to play back 4 blood, scorn, halo infinite and forza horizon 5 this year alone!
 
Scorn and The Gunk didn't even make the show, that's how much quality is coming.
Tbh I think that's pretty weird .. Scorn seems to be vapourware at this point and I don't understand how the Gunk doesn't have a release date yet.

It's pretty funny when you show people Gamepass for the first time, they struggle to comprehend how much you get for your money.
 
I'm playing the OG Psychonauts right now on my Series S. It's timeless.

The relative lack of hype for the second is a massive shame.

I know some people are looking forward to it but barely anyone is mentioning it as a highlight of the show, it's coming out in August and looks amazing! The type of game that Xbox haven't been able to produce, ever, Double Fine is a great string in their bow.
 
I like how gamepass completely changed my perception of new games being revealed. Before it was "that one may be interesting, but am I sure it's really the kind of game I should buy ?", now it's "that one seems interesting, i'll try it for sure when it releases".
 
really happy to see yakuza 7 there, downloading it as we speak..
i just hoping it doesn't have the same issue that the rest of the yakuza series has on gamepass, aka they boot in japanese with no way to switch it to engish

Mid game? I think you can switch whenever you want in 7

Totally agree, suddenly a 7/10 game can still be played day 1 instead of much later on a sale, I'm constantly trying out new games. Tbh things looks almost stressful going forward and I'm already having issues managing the storage even with an expansion card 😅

haven't checked 7, but yakuza 0,1 and 2 had no option to switch language

managed to play 0 because there was a trick (by editing registry key) that allowed to force the english language in, started playing 1with the same trick but had to stop playing for a while for lack of time and when i came back they apparently patched it and now it stays in japanese...downloaded 2 and had the same issue.

Think I was going off some other stories https://attackofthefanboy.com/guides/yakuza-like-a-dragon-english-japanese-vo/
 
Are there any Bethesda games available on Xbox that are yet to come to GP?
Arx Fatalis was also released on the OG Xbox.


There are a bunch really. Some other highlights:

Wet


Hunted The Demon's Forge (funny how now Microsoft owns both the developer and publisher)

This is so true.
I got a couple of my IRL friends to jump on the Gamepass bandwagon, and they legit think theres something they are missing....like they are being charged per hour of play or something. Because, whats on offer vastly outweighs what they are paying and what they are used to paying.

One year of gamepass is cheaper than a single new game in my country(gold conversion) so it doesnt make sense to them that they get all these great games for less than the price of a single game.

And with the roadmap MS showed for day and date titles the conference was an easy 10 outta 10.
Got enough games for this year and got announcements for games coming out next year.
Other than Battlefield I wont really need to spend another dollar this year on gaming.

Can confirm you choose your language at the beginning of the game.

Gamepass is way too good its shocking. I kinda assumed day one for AA and AAA games would be a one or two per year thing like Outriders and MLB, but the games in the middle column are top quality shit. Don't know how they're pulling it off but am glad they are! Jim Ryan put that ugly Playstation Movie service in the incinerator it's embarrassing :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Subscription services make shitloads of money. Even if we assume that the average Gamepass subscriber only pays 5 bucks a month or so (very low estimate), that's something like 1.4 billion dollars per year. Way more than enough to pay for all the first party studios and the 3rd party games on Gamepass. And sub numbers will only keep growing for the foreseeable future.

It's been proven by people from The verge that Gamepass is still not profitable.
 
I wonder how many new subs they got after yesterdays show. Absolutely ridiculous value, to the point where you would have to be an idiot not to have Gamepass, if you are on PC and Xbox.
 
Ascent is must play for me. Looks really good.


Also Hades finally. Lets see whats the all fuss about lol.

Also, im starting Yakuza marathon from today. It will take me few months :D

Its been proven by no one, unless it comes from Microsoft execs themselves. Although its obvious Microsft are in the 'You have to speculate to accumilate' phase when it comes to Gamepass.

Not yet. They in content creation stage and getting people on board. Once supply line clear and games coming out at good pace then you will see it will start making money back. 2023 and onwards
 
Gamepass is definitely changing how I approach games. I kept thinking during the conference 'hmmm I may get that or maybe wait for sale... oh yeah, I can just try it straight away with gamepass so I may as well play it day 1''

It's also wanting me to hold back on buying games. Take far cry 6, look interesting, I could buy it, or I could just get 6 months of game pass for the same price... may as well just wait for a sale down the line. Also it might turn up on gamepass by then like yakuza like a dragon just did.

I know they went for nostalgic art & style, but those old school low poly and low res textures with bad texture filtering makes my eyes bleed and brain hurt.

I just started the first a week or so ago and Vernon Tripe is already one of my favorite video game characters. His monologues had me howling at times. Looking forward to finishing this and playing the sequel soon.

It actually lets you set the Text and Voice Over settings on first boot, it'll be the first thing you see after the Studio Splash screens. I tested it out this morning(Already beat the game on PC and knew you could set the language/voice over stuff, but redownloaded the gamepass version to test it out)

I actually ran into another error though lmao. The gamepass PC version won't let me play, it just keeps asking me to set the brightness over and over, I even made a video of it:

Sorry the sounds messed up, I do audio engineering on the side and some of my audio hardware picked up the audio and distorted it lol. But it just says "Saving" and never advances

Downloaded the gamepass version on my Series X and it runs perfectly fine tho, looks like they got some bugs in the version of the PC Game they loaded onto the GP PC Platform.

Weird cause the non-GP but still Microsoft store version of Y7 was working for me when I played it earlier in the year.
 
This may be a dumb question, but if you have Game Pass can you download the games you want to play or does it only offer to play in the cloud?

This would be a deal breaker for me if they force you to play in the cloud and not have an option to download the game.

See the "Hero Edition" on Steam, I have that and beat that version and uninstalled it. I wonder if anything is left over from that install that may be impacting this one, im gonna try deleting this GP Installation, removing it, and cleaning up my Steam folder then reinstalling - maybe that'll do it

If it doesn't work for me then im fine with it, but I really wanted to test it out and see if it had that console cross save feature thats really dope in some of the other Console+PC Games that are offered on Gamepass. That was my whole reason for even downloading it on my series x and my gamepass account

You download the games, but they do allow you to play them in the cloud too.
Like go to this link:

See how it says "PC and Console" and you can click the links to show everything available for those platforms? All of that can be downloaded right now, and its very few if any games that are sitting on the cloud that don't show up on atleast PC or Console as downloadable

Now that's brilliant! Game Pass is a must then if you're on Xbox.
