The Xbox Game Pass continues to delight its users, and as the end of summer approaches, it announces two games that the community is particularly eagerly awaiting.
Alas, the month of August is coming to an end. For many, this means the end of the holidays and the return to school or work, the gradual reduction of sunny days and the arrival of the first fresh air. However, all is not gloomy, because the Xbox Game Pass gratifies us (once again) with the announcement of two superb games planned for “soon”.
A future nugget on the Xbox Game Pass
The first to land is Jusant, currently the only one with a confirmed release date. Moreover, we have just published a preview on Gameblog. In summary, this is a climbing game mixing action and puzzle, created by Don’t Nod. The objective is simple: to climb a huge tower whose top is hidden beyond the clouds. To achieve this, our character is equipped like a real mountaineer: ropes, pitons, and phenomenal strength in his hands. Note the total absence of dialogue in Jusant. This choice of the developers aims to reinforce the contemplative aspect of the game, reminiscent in certain aspects of the game Journey from the renowned studio thatgamecompany. As we said, this title offers a captivating universe that arouses curiosity, all wrapped in fairly clever mechanics. A contemplative game not to be missed. It will be available from October 31 on the Xbox Game Pass. Great news, isn’t it?
A promising second game on the program
The second game, unlike the first, does not yet have a release date, but does have a name: Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector. Two rooms, two atmospheres. There is indeed no question here of contemplation, but rather of a narrative RPG where one embodies a sleeper, that is to say a cybernetic body sheltering the spirit of a human. The game seems mostly focused on its storyline and board game elements. The challenge ? Escape your jailers and take charge of your destiny. The synopsis is enticing. However, it is essential to mention that the first episode, as qualitative as it is, is only in English. A point that could discourage some, especially when the story and game choices are at the heart of the gameplay. It will also be available from D-Day on the Xbox Game Pass. Enough to add yet another independent nugget to your catalog.
In addition, let’s also remember that the start of the school year is off to a flying start with the service. We will be entitled to:
- Starfield Early Access (via Premium Edition upgrade) – 1er September (Console, PC, Cloud)
- Gray – September 5 (Console, PC, Cloud)
- Starfield – September 6 (Console, PC, Cloud)
- Lies of P – September 19 (Console, PC)
- Party Animals – September 20 (Console, PC)
- Payday 3 – September 21 (Console, PC, Cloud)
- cocoon – September 29 (Console, PC)
Just with Starfield and Payday 3, we feel that Xbox wants to strike a blow.
