Microsoft has announced a fresh batch of games that are landing soon on Xbox Game Pass, and there's a lot of love for roleplaying game fans, starting with the previously teased Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. The first-person historical RPG from Warhorse Studios will be available starting March 3 on the Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and PC Game Pass tiers.
In just two days from now, though, another massively acclaimed action RPG will join Game Pass: CD Projekt RED's The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition. Unfortunately, this will only be available via the cloud and on Xbox Series S and X consoles, leaving PC users out. The game will be playable by Xbox Game Pass Premium and Ultimate subscribers.
Starting today, subscribers to the Premium tier (rumored to be under revision by Microsoft, which is considering a potential merge with PC Game Pass) can also play Obsidian's Avowed. I heartily recommend the game, as I did in my original review, and it has since been improved, including the recent Anniversary Update that launched alongside its debut on PlayStation 5.
Here's the full list of new games that will join Xbox Game Pass at the various tiers, including some that had been previously confirmed:
