Can vouch for chorus. Really enjoying this modern star fox game.

I should probably give Chorus a shot too. RE2/3 remake patches have me swamped.
Anyway, here's the currently known GP games for next month.

Was looking forward to FC5 but I’ve just gone through my boxed game collection and realise I’ve got it and played it. What a fool.

Chinatown Detective Agency is fucking awesome by the way. I had the day off and just wanted to chill. Youre just reading, searching for clues and you have to search on your own on Google outside of the game sometimes. Then book flights and travel to do more investigating. Having a blast so far. Couple hours in.

This is likely old news to many. But just tried out World War Z. So this is awesome too lol? Way better than I expected. Played through level 1 and it was honestly great for a coop horde shooter. Fun ragdoll effects on enemies and tons of enemies on screen at once.
You can play offline with 3 bots and they actually do extremely well so far. Just take the time to heal them at supply points and you're golden. I recommend trying it on cloud. You'll likely download it.

Another five games are set to leave Xbox Game Pass in mid-July, with Carrion, Children of Morta, Cris Tales, Atomicrops, and Lethal League Blaze the latest five titles to bow out of the service.
Children of Morta will be the only one I miss, but all of these seem like easy gamerscore if you want to cross then off.
Are you amused

I bought Morta. Im like halfway through Carrion and not sure I need to play more. Was fun but needs a map. Cris Tales I was stuck on the first boss for some reason. Might try it one last time.Another five games are set to leave Xbox Game Pass in mid-July, with Carrion, Children of Morta, Cris Tales, Atomicrops, and Lethal League Blaze the latest five titles to bow out of the service.

Man, Game Pass has been a fantastic thing for Japanese game fans on Xbox. So many franchises introduced to the console eco system through the service.
Hell, the entire Yakuza franchise can be played via Game Pass.
Amazing.

leads to fear. Fear leads to xbox.
Can 3 month xbox live codes be stacked for a total of 36 months to then take advantage of the $1 gamepass ultimate deal?

Cannot wait for the power house of AAA magnificence that Power Wash Simulator is going to be when it drops tomorrow.

It's going be a fun time for when you want to just chill. if you've ever pressure washed a vehicle after going mud bogging, you understand how satisfying it can be.
Not everything has to be ADHD shooty shooty bang bang all the time.

Came back from vacation and started Road 96, so far it’s fucking great. The art style, the soundtrack and just the feel of the game - love it so far.

I was surprised it only runs at 30 fps, which is super weird for a XS optimised game. I haven't played a 30 fps game in months so that was a bit too choppy for my brain to handle.

Yeah, one of my GP favourites this year. I'm on my 4th run (first three were successful) and each run brings something new to the table both from narrative and gameplay pov. Imagine what these guys could do with a decent budget.

The more I play it the more I love it, it’s at the same time simple and full of cool ideas. I’m almost at the Election Day (which I guess is the end of the game) and every run so far has felt different.
Would be my favorite indie of the year if it wasn’t for Tunic.

Beat the 3rd room in escape academy. I can only play 1 escape room a day. The timer stresses me out lol. At the end of each level I feel like a fucking genius though. The puzzles are honestly fantastic. I highly recommend the game. And if you truly get stuck, just hit the hint button. It's designed really well. I had to use one hint and it only covered the one step I was stuck on and didn't spoil the whole thing.

Lately people have been complaining about a lack of good stuff coming out on GP so made a little experiment to see if the service is still useful for me, specifically. I wrote down GP games from last three months that I don't own, but have played or have interest in. Then I wrote down the price I would be willing to pay for them (not the original price but theoretical discount price).
May - 75 EUR
June - 90 EUR
July - 50 EUR
Yeah, Gamepass still kicks ass!

The same people also complain about their constantly growing backlog... This is the thing tho, there might not be any good ganes this or that month, but there are still dozens of awesome games available that launched earlier. The past two months have been weak let's be honest, but this way I actually got to finish or just start those 20 games I previously installed and have been waiting since forever.

If you're talking about people on this forum in the bi-weekly GP announcement threads, I wouldn't worry about them. They're just bad faith actors.
Anyway, Road 96 was a pleasant surprise. Managed to get 1000G in my first run through.
Highly recommended.

Far Cry 6 possibly coming to game pass soon

What time is it?
Played the first two missions in PowerWash Simulator and while I can understand the Zen like appeal, it fails out of the gate of being a simulator as there are no fluid dynamics. If you were going to pressure wash something you'd start from the top and work your way down. You also wouldn't be able to power wash a ground surface and then wash something sitting on that surface. What is presented is little more than a resizable magic eraser. Or maybe the Simulator in this instance was supposed to be more akin to Goat Simulator. It's a little to tedious for me but I do think the concept has potential for a more ambition project with a bigger budget. Seems to be selling like gangbusters so there is hope.

As Dusk Falls is a legitimate good game added to the service. Despite how divisive the art style may be for some folks.

Played the Citizen Sleeper update. Was actually a little disappointed with it.
Its short. Fine, its a small update. But the choices didn't seem very well laid out for me. Its all about a random large group of refugees that pop up on the Eye and these two complete strangers basically demand a ton of supplies from you with zero explanation.
I never forgot the sense of hopeless desperation you feel in this game as you slowly claw your way up from the gutter to self sufficiency. You need stabilizers, scrap, money and all kinds of shit just to barely live. Anyone that helps you gets a cut and has their own self interest involved. Thats how I role-playing this quest. I was open to helping as long as these strangers gave me some explanation and also promised something that benefits me. That was non negotiable.
So it seemed the quest line was more about just making you feel bad if you don't dump a ton of resources into this random quest for strangers with no explanation. Both the drives failed. But I did exactly what I thought was right. Then the quest ended. Wait until update 2 in October. A rare let down of a quest in a masterpiece of a game.

Also, been playing some Wolfenstein Youngblood with the DRS Off. The game runs so good and it's native 4K/60 FPS. Impressive.

There are so many game developers that obviously wish they were making movies or TV shows instead.
Sam Barlow is actually playing with the concept in ever more creative ways. Glad this is coming to Gamepass

I'm not sure of each ones date personally, sorry. But the expectation is that at the very least a Deathloop announcement (if not a release date) should be announced in September once the 1 year exclusivity period ends.

Good point on death loop. I keep forgetting about it. I suspect Sony made the contract so it can’t be mentioned. Really hope it was only a one year timed exclusivity and there are no game pass subscription restrictions. Maybe this is why the September announcements seem light is because this is coming.

Anyone else starting to get a little frustrated that the DLC for first party titles isn't on Game Pass? Two examples recently that had me frustrated is Prey: Mooncrash and the FH5 Hotwheels DLC. I understand DLC not being part of the agreement for second/third party titles, but it's really frustrating that I have to buy DLC for Game Pass games that I technically don't even own. So now I'm forced to wait for a sale, and usually the game+DLC (like the Forza Horizon 5 Premium Edition) makes more sense when the title is on sale, but then that defeats the entire purpose of subscribing to Game Pass.

Rumors about Ubi+ coming to consoles coming up again, from a twitter person who is known to datamine Xbox and PC content.
