Xbox announces new titles coming to Xbox Game Pass

Sharing some Xbox Game Pass news this from earlier this afternoon, including an update on cloud gaming.

First, today, Kareem Choudhry, corporate vice president of cloud gaming at Microsoft, published a blog unveiling the full lineup of more than 150 games that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can play via the cloud in 22 countries starting, tomorrow, September 15 at no additional cost. Thanks to the cloud, Ultimate members will enjoy continuity when away from their console, access to the Xbox ecosystem across multiple devices, and it’s now easier than ever before to play games with friends.

Today’s news, available here, details the titles available via cloud gaming with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Gamers will have access to 167 games when the feature becomes available, and the library will be updated regularly.

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
