Microsoft has revealed the titles they’ll be adding to Xbox Game Pass on PC and consoles in early October, and this may well be the second-biggest lineup of the year (after the big Starfield drop in September). Subscribers can look forward to the likes of new Forza Motorsport, Gotham Knights, the console version of Warhammer 40K: Darktide, and more over the coming weeks.
Here are your headliner Game Pass titles for the next couple of weeks:
Gotham Knights (PC and Xbox Series X|S) – Available now
From Wccftech’s review – “Gotham Knights is an enjoyable action RPG that follows in the footsteps of the Batman: Arkham legacy while striking out on its own in a slightly different direction. It's the most realistic Gotham City we've seen yet, even though the story is only serviceable and the performance is disappointing. Still, fans of the genre and the characters should have fun with the game.”
Forza Motorsport (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S) – October 10
“Race over 500 real-world cars, including modern race cars and more than 100 cars new to Forza Motorsport. Make every lap count across 20 living environments, with fan-favorite locations and multiple track layouts to master, each featuring live on-track scoring, fully dynamic time-of-day with weather, and unique driving conditions that ensure no two laps ever look or play the same.”
These games will also be available in early October:
