Xbox Game Pass Reveals Seven New PC/Xbox One Titles Being Added In January As Part Of Wave 2

by Rainier on Jan. 22, 2020 @ 8:31 a.m. PST

Xbox One is Microsoft's all-in-one gaming and entertainment system that puts you at the center of all your games, TV, movies, music, sports and Skype.

Xbox Game Pass is Microsoft's digital gaming subscription service that gives you unlimited access to over dozens of Xbox One, PC, and Backward Compatible Xbox 360 games for $9.99 USD per month.

With Xbox Game Pass, you can download and play a broad range of games in full fidelity on your Xbox One.

Each month, Xbox Game Pass will add a new set of games to the catalog so there is always something new to play across a diversity of experiences, genres, ratings and more. For gamers, this means endless play of full-fidelity gaming experiences without having to worry about streaming, bandwidth or connectivity issues.

After playing Sea Salt as the Eldritch force of the sea, I’d like to run the sea through a water filter and encase whatever is sifted out in cement please. Next up, If you bag up a visual novel, an anime, a side scroller, and an action RPG together, then give it a hearty shake to mix up the ingredients, what comes out is incredibly awesome. Also, is this how they made Indivisible? Note: try this with lunch tomorrow. (Dear readers: I did not try this with my lunch the next day.) Also, who looks at a swarm of rats and knows it would be an awesome game mechanic?! I’m glad someone did, but need to know if other swarms were considered and rejected before A Plague Tale: Innocence decided on rats. Swarms of adorable kittens would have made for a very different game.
