There's one major game hitting Game Pass this week, but if Avowed isn't your style we have plenty of other excellent new Xbox games you can play this weekend.

So, sure, GamePass is reasonably successful for what it is — but it definitely hasn’t changed the world like Netflix did to Hollywood. People are still mostly buying new games, sometimes even still on a disc from Best Buy or Walmart. Streaming a game to your phone or TV over the cloud remains pretty niche.

If Microsoft succeeds, Game Pass could come to Sony's PlayStation and give players a way to play Xbox's games on rival platforms for the first time.

The Xbox Game Pass content catalog receives two more February 2025 titles, only one of which is available on the Standard tier.

Xbox Game Pass subscribers can now expand the Imperium of Mankind in the grimdark universe of Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. And if you've got the need for speed, you can race to the checkered flag in the Formula One Championship in F1 24.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass get EA Sports F1 24 on February 2024. Standard tier and up subscribers get Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader on February 20 and Watch Dogs: Legion on February 25.

It's that time when Microsoft pulls back the veil and reveals the next video game set for their Xbox Game Pass service.

This week marks the first anniversary of the monster-catching game Palworld and the developer Pocketpair has provided a player update.
