It's been a good week for Xbox Game Pass with the arrivals of Life is Strange: True Colors and Lost in Random (amongst others), and in regards to the former, it seems to be going down very well with Game Pass subscribers so far.
We've seen a lot of positivity around social media over the past couple of days about the game, with many people dipping into the series for the first time (don't worry, you don't need to play the first two to understand True Colors!).
"I tried True Colors on Xbox Game Pass and now I plan to buy the complete collection of the series. Better late than never I guess?"
"Alex Chen is legitimately one of my favourite video game characters, maybe favourite characters period."
"True Colors is really great, although I’m a little sad your choices don’t really matter that much. Still an amazing experience, especially when you’re just sitting down and listening to the music."
The critics generally also agreed that True Colors is a fantastic addition to the series in their reviews last year, with the game sporting a very impressive 84 rating for Xbox Series X and 81 rating for PlayStation 5 on Metacritic.
So, how are you finding it so far? Let us know what score you'd give the game so far in the poll below.

This series has a nasty stench to it. Gamers beware. Don't fall for the false hype.
I absolutely love it so far. The storytelling and the mechanic is just amazing

Guys, gotta tell you this: the second LiS is really, really good, and you see your young brother react and change, based on your actions and choices, and also the ending varies drastically based on those elements. If you gotta pick one from the series, grab that one!
This series is absolutely incredible and True Colors is a great addition to the franchise, can't wait for more games
It's good and highlights the best thing about gamepass. I would never have paid for this in a million years, still wouldn't but appreciate it's a good game and glad I've had a chance to play it as part of my subscription.
Got a daughter who loves this stuff, bought for her the other life is strange series, so she's loving this also, she plays it on xcloud, that's why gamepass is so great, the diversity of games, my eldest son has also an xbox (series s) so I gameshare with his box, my youngest son has a game pc , so he can enjoy the pc side of gamepass ultimate, and my youngest daughter shares the xbox series x with her dad, loves all the legogames, and all the kid stuff on gamepass, still eager to find out what the family gamepass is going to look like.
@Kooky_Daisuke I agree it is a bit short but that goes for many great games. I’m looking at you Insomniac Games, absolutely stellar games but oh so short. Most Resident Evil games also springs to mind.
It's excellent. The performance outside of cutscenes is a bit sucky on Series S, but all is forgiven when you see the quality of the facial animations. As a story it's fantastic, and to me on a par with the first in the series.
Damn can anyone really give any game 1/10? I mean just the fact the game launched in a decent state and acknowledgement of the hard work developers put in deserves a higher score than that. I brought it around launch and found it good but a tad short for the price
Omg! I loved it! It's like an interactive movie!
LoL does the title to this article just seem a little off to anyone else???
Life Is Strange:True Colors Is Going Down A Treat On Xbox Game Pass.
Going down a treat??? LoL never heard that term before
It runs like an overweight sloth on Series S outside of cutscenes. Not to mention making the console sound like it's about to take off. The game itself is OK, but a little too IG to be confused with anything remotely like real life.
