We've had loads of titles hitting Xbox Game Pass this week, and to cap off the selection, Aragami 2 has now joined the service. It's available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PC and via Xbox Cloud Gaming.
Following on from the cult classic Aragami: Shadow Edition, players can engage in a variety of stealth-based missions, either solo or cooperatively (although Xbox One users should be aware of some issues at launch). You'll be able to utilise something known as Shadow Essence, which allows you to control the shadows and complete a variety of quests and tasks.
"Aragami 2 is a third person stealth game where you play as an assassin with the power to control the shadows. You are one of the last elite warriors of your kin, the Aragami. Victims of a supernatural affliction which corrodes the body and devours the mind, the Aragami control Shadow Essence - a mystical power which grants the ability to control the shadows.
With this power the Aragami carry out their tasks and quests - assignments made all along the valley to ensure the subsistence of the village and to free the Aragami enslaved by the invader armies."
The game is currently sitting at a Metacritic rating of 73, so it seems to be getting fairly good reviews. It sounds like the perfect Xbox Game Pass title, and we're sure there's an audience out there who will love and embrace this game.

Had a quick go this morning, only did part of the opening but the mechanics seem to work really well.
This definitely scratches the Tenchu itch and the mobility and combat feel great.
I'm loving it so far. Tenchu in all but name
