Welcome to another Xbox Game Pass roundup! November 2022's Game Pass selection continues with four new additions today, November 17th, including two that are exclusive to PC, and two that are coming to console as well.

The two biggest highlights of the day are arguably the strategy game Dune: Spice Wars, which arrives as part of the Game Preview program for PC Game Pass, while the critically acclaimed Norco finally joins Xbox Game Pass for console and Xbox Cloud Gaming as well. Good stuff!

Here's a breakdown of each new Xbox Game Pass title:

Dune: Spice Wars - PC (Game Preview)

A 4X real-time strategy game from the developers of the critically acclaimed Northgard. Set in Frank Herbert’s groundbreaking Dune universe, you must lead your faction and battle for control and dominance over the harsh desert planet of Arrakis.

Ghostlore - PC (Game Preview)

Ghostlore is an 'Eastpunk' Action-RPG where you fight monsters from Southeast-Asian folklore. Inspired by timeless classic ARPG's such as Diablo 2 and Titan Quest, Ghostlore features a detailed item and character customization system, procedurally generated maps, and beautiful 2D isometric art.

Lapin - Console, PC, Cloud

LAPIN is a 2D platformer game featuring a group of brave rabbit explorers. Five rabbits used to live under a park, but construction forced them to leave their beloved hole. Players need to help Liebe and her friends to explore the world with precise control. Hop on to the end of the adventure!

Norco - Console, Cloud (Already On PC)

NORCO is a text-based point & click adventure that immerses the player in the sinking suburbs and industrial swamplands of an increasingly surreal and distorted South Louisiana.

" It is by will alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of sapho that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set my mind in motion."

Sorry about that, difficult not to mantra when someone mentions Dune!
I'm a little miffed its a preview, I want to play the whole thing!

Lapin might be nice if my niece comes to visit.
But Norco and and Ghostlore are prime examples of games I wont look at - they are so Fugly they offend me, lol! In particular, having lived through times when games were pixelated cause that's all we could squeeze out of our machines, any game that uses pixel art now is immediately skipped. I may miss out on some sweet design elements, but if that's how they are 'dressed' then I'm happy to miss out.

Dune is the one that looks most interesting but i hardly game on my potato pc anymore. So i hope that one will come to console one day. From the other ones Norco looks to be the most interesting based on reviews.
