The Xbox Game Pass for PC offers a full programme in June: In addition to Assassin’s Creed: Origins, there are other highlights. As always, we have the overview for you!
Summertime is gamer time, at least if the PC Game Pass has its way. Right at the start of June 2022, it’s offering several exciting titles that you can get as part of your subscription at no extra charge. With Assassin’s Creed: Origins, another big Ubisoft name is moving into the library, and of course there’s a lot more.
Microsoft usually only announces a portion of the new additions at the beginning of the month, so you can expect more deals to pop up in the near future.
Assassin’s Creed Origins
(Genre: Action-Adventure – Developer: Ubisoft Montreal – Release: 27 October 2017 – In Game Pass from: 7 June 2022)
Assassin’s Creed Origins marked a reboot for the series. New role-playing elements, a huge open world with a lot of variety and new gameplay freedom make the tenth part very popular among fans. From June, you can also travel through Ancient Egypt with its huge pyramids, scorching desert, green Nile delta and the Mediterranean Sea with the PC Game Pass. Be sure to plan plenty of time for this, because the world invites you to take long exploration tours.
The story about the lovers Bayek and Aya (you control both of them, even if Bayek gets the most playing time) has some really strong, emotional moments. And last but not least, we also learn more about the mysterious origins of the Assassin Order!
More new PC games in Game Pass in June 2022
From June 1
- For Honor: Marching Fire Edition: Includes both the base game and the Marching Fire expansion. You choose from a huge character pool which fighter you control in battle and then duel with other players in PvP. Lots of customisation options to make your heroes chic.
From 2 June
- Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection: Three individual titles from the Ninja Gaiden series are in here, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge, but without online multiplayer. But with lots of fighting techniques that you master.
From 7 June
- Disc Room: Cartoon splatter in which, in typical Roguelike fashion, you die over and over again until you conquer the crunchy levels.
- Spacelines from the Far Out: management, space, 60s and co-op – if these buzzwords tickle your fancy, then check the game out. Appears directly on release in Game Pass.
- Chorus: Fast-paced space shooter with impressively beautiful graphics and a gripping story. Turns out quite short though, about 10 to 15 hours if you take it all in and give yourself some time.
