Glitch's Trip is a beautiful looking, 2D platforming, twin-stick action game that will challenge and destroy you, but it is so cute and charming you will keep coming back for more. With 100 unique levels and challenges there is tons of replayability here.
Ghost of Tsushima: Legends is a shockingly excellent, cooperative looter-slasher with an incredible visual style that breathes new life into the game to make it feel like a different, yet complete, experience and it's absolutely free.
Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory is a great rhythm game that is sure to be enjoyed by newcomers and veteran players of the genre. However, if you're buying it for the story you should probably skip this. This isn't the Kairi game fans have been pining for since the Re:Mind DLC.
A simplistic puzzle game that doesn't take a long time to learn how to play, but requires you to look and rotate the level to navigate your box to the portal to advance. A great game to play to relax and work your mind.
A psychological horror game full of puzzles that make you afraid to do anything in your house, including getting out of bed. The game deals with depression, isolation and how that affects your inner dialogue and feelings.
Wet Dreams Dry Twice is a solid sequel to 2018's entry. Some unfortunate polish issues and inconsistent puzzle difficulty stop it being great. Larry is the same oblivious, sexist, backwards thinking womaniser he's always been but this adventure might help him grow… might!
Hivebusters is a safe but rewarding package that gives you more of what you love about Gears 5. The characters are strong, the campaign is solid, and gameplay is exactly what is expected. If you are a fan of Gears 5, then this expansion is a no brainer and is easily another reason to get Game Pass.
A decent adventure title which, despite its slow pace, just barely manages to earn its keep with combat, puzzle and exploration gameplay. It doesn't live up to its predecessor, but it doesn't seem like it's trying to.
An epic open-world Action RPG with a tonne of content and genuinely enjoyable exploration makes for a great new IP. There are a few niggles with controls and loading times, and it's not always clear what you need to do, but when the game is this much fun, I'm happy to overlook those.
Great mech design and accessibility cannot save Override 2: Super Mech League from it's weightless, lifeless gameplay. The maps often come across as too small, leading to cluttered fights that really affect the games flow.
A satisfying take on the Commandos genre. Partisans 1941 allows players to walk through the brutality of the Second World War, searching for a beacon of hope on the other side.
Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age - Definitive Edition takes an already amazing JRPG and gives it just enough to make it even better. Noticeable performance drops aside, this is one title everyone should experience.
Unto the End is a scenic, lonely 2D side-scroller that sets its primary focus on a fixed number of intense battles with its unique combat system that is difficult to learn, but satisfying is master. There is no hand-holding here, though sometimes you might wish there was.
Worms Rumble is a hectic, and chaotic real-time run-and-gun style game featuring the characters you love from the franchise. If you are looking for a game that feels like it's strategic ancestors with a lot of humour, this is not the game for you.
Hyper Parasite is a very challenging rogue-like game that features a lot of cool '80s inspired characters and a cool mechanic that has you playing as a parasite taking over different host bodies to survive. The game might not look great but is still addictive to play.
Overall, Cyberpunk 2077 is a fun game that is plagued by bugs. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this game in its current state, but with patches this should improve.
An enjoyable overworld dragged down by tedious, imprecise platforming gameplay. It's not devoid of merit, but Drawn To Life: Two Realms isn't the jolt of electricity needed to shock the franchise back to life.
Tanuki Justice is a super fun and difficult game reminiscent of challenging games like Ninja Gaiden and Mega Man. Not much for a story here but has a lot of ninja throwing star action, what more do you really need.
RoboPhobik is a unique puzzle game where the enemy only moves if you do that makes you be strategic and think out everything you are doing. If you want to run in and destroy everything this may not be the game for you.
Warhammer: Chaosbane Slayer Edition is an improvement on the base game from last generation, but never truly feels like a next gen title. The added content will make this a worthy upgrade for those who enjoyed the base game, however the game remains too generic in terms of story and far too easy when it comes to gameplay.
