These Six Games Are Coming To Xbox Game Pass (January 8-14)

Wow... weak first drop of the year for Ultimate members..

Oh! I really like the look of Sherwood Builders, one of those screenshots reminds me of Settlers from my Amiga days 😊

So only one for gpu on console? 😆 good thing I have so much catching up to do.

Kinda miss when gpu was getting several interesting indies every month it seemed like.

???? Wer the games?

Nothing much for me this time. I already own the original Diablo + Hellfire via GOG.com.

Proper tease that Diablo drop for PC, itching for the Xbox drop to start this series for the first time.

I'm glad I pay extra for Ultimate just to get one game. Thanks Microsoft.

@jesse_dylan same here 😞 nowhere near as good as it was for em. light on games lately too since they started making it look like more with core additions etc😭

At least, last few I've played , Robin hood games are cursed to be pretty bad.

The one per month of abk games continues.

@GuyinPA75 There were some good PC games back in the day... maybe only one, a Sierra narrative-adventure point and click type of thing. Would recommend to any Robin Hood fan.

@jesse_dylan Sierra back in the day (go with mid to late 80s into early 90s) made incredible games for that era. All their games were tons of fun.

The first person shooter boom came and I feel really hurt that genre Sierra was known for.

People complaining should realize the second half of the month is stacked.

Day One releases of significant games:
Eternal Strands
Sniper Elite: Resistance
Citizen Sleeper 2

Those three games alone make this an awesome month.

MS should announce games for a full month because this happens a lot and gives a false impression.

@GuyinPA75 Yep, LucasFilm too, and even Maxis to some extent (software toys, not "adventure" games)-- It wasn't so much that no one wanted those games anymore, more that publishers chased where the money was, and the FPS was mass market for sure. That said, there was a time when those old adventure games were the mass market (although the market was smaller).

Not a lot gets released at this time of year. I wonder why smaller/indie game developers don’t release around now (or in summer) and get a clearer run, rather than getting lost among the big release before Christmas.

So one game if you have ultimate and don't play pc games...

I'm glad I opted for Standard this month.

@awp69 I’m so glad I’m not the only one that realizes that this month is stacked. Sniper Elite Resistance alone makes this a great month for me personally.

One game for ultimate members? Is this the way to treat your most dedicated customers?

So, nothing, then.

@luke88 How is it only one game when there is also these releases this month...

Sniper Elite Resistance (Day One release)

Eternal Strands. (Day One release)

Citizen Sleeper 2 (Day One release)

@Rog-X Yeah. I'm just saying there's nothing coming out on GPU this month.

I kno only one new game for Ultimate is kind of a bummer but after Day 1 releases of big games like Stalker 2, COD Blops 6 and Indiana Jones this is the result of that and there is some required cost off setting to do to keep the service viable without a price increase

@YeyoFairy We've just had a price increase, though, haven't we?

@Rog-X I'm obviously referring to this article, as in the first batch of game pass releases this month. Though they padded the numbers with standard tier stuff last month, too.

I literally only just twigged that this is precisely one week. No wonder there's even less than usual.

What? Microsoft just trolling us at this point
Gotta give em props though, if anything they're consistently *****
2025 off to a great start already 👍

More Activision drops please!
