Biggest Games Releasing on Xbox Game Pass

Xbox's Summer Showcase last June was a massive success, revealing an incredible amount of new games coming to the platform. The showcase included Doom: The Dark Ages, Perfect Dark, Fable, Gears of War: E-Day, and so many more. But which of these titles will appear as day-one releases on Game Pass? Thankfully, quite a few! Including all of the previously mentioned titles.

The latest big release on the platform is Avowed. In our review, writer Travis Northup said, "Even if it doesn’t swing for the fences or leave a memorable mark on the genre, though, it’s still perfectly competent with all the tried-and-true stuff I expect, including chaotic combat, leveling systems and a loot progression that lets you build the kind of character you want to play, and meaningful decisions that can have a massive impact on the world."
