Xbox Game Pass is a subscription service that gives players access to a library of over 100 games, including all Microsoft first-party titles, for $10 a month. New subscribers can currently get their first month of Game Pass for $1. Also, as we reported before, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has previously indicated that Game Pass will one day be coming to PC. However, we aren’t yet sure when this expansion to the service will take place.
Alongside PUBG, Microsoft announced 15 other previously released and upcoming games making their way to Xbox Game Pass. These games include Hellblade, Ori and the Blind Forest, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Mutant Year Zero and Agents of Mayhem, among others. Here is the full list of newly announced Game Pass games:
