The two other games in this month’s selection, State of Decay 2 and Laser League, will be launching simultaneously for Xbox One and Xbox Game Pass. Laser League, created by OlliOlli and Not A Hero developer Roll7, is a “light-speed, arcade multiplayer shooter” with 4v4 local matches or 2v2 and 3v3 online battles. The game will be available for pass members on May 10.

Headlining the group is Microsoft’s own State of Decay 2, which launches on May 22 for Xbox One and Windows 10 PC. In addition to being included in the pass, the zombie survival game can be bought from the digital store at $29.99 for the standard edition and $49.99 for the ultimate edition. The latter contains a copy of State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition for Xbox One and four-day early access to State of Decay 2 on Friday, May 18.

Additionally, Konami’s Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 will only be available in Xbox Game Pass from May 1 to Aug. 31. This is not the first time a title in the pass has announced a limited duration, as Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain was removed in Jan. 2018 after three months.

The Xbox Game Pass includes over 100 games to fully install and play for $9.99 per month. For a limited time, Microsoft is offering new members the first month of the pass for $1.
