Once again, October 2023 will see some new and exciting additions to Xbox Game Pass, but also some departures.
Every month is a coming and going month for Xbox Game Pass. This month, you can look forward to an open-world superhero game that’s especially fun to play online with a friend. You can also enjoy one of the racing games of the year. However, there will also be some farewells again.
In the meantime, some titles have been announced that will join Microsoft’s game library in October. You can also see the first wave of departures in the meantime.
Cities: Skylines 2 was actually supposed to appear in the Game Pass in October. However, the console version has been postponed and as a result, the release in Game Pass has also been postponed.
Highlight: Gotham Knights
(Genre: Open-world action | Developer: Warner Bros. Games Montreal | Release: October 21, 2022 | In Game Pass from: October 3, 2023)
Batman is dead. But anyone who thinks that this would cause anarchy to break out in Gotham City is wrong. Because the dark knight has taken precautions and collected some right hands over the past years. These have long since distanced themselves from their mentor and built their own personalities. Now they have to follow in his footsteps.
In the open-world action game Gotham Knights you slip into the role of Nightwing, Red Hood, Batgirl or Robin and protect your hometown from ruthless villains. Especially the superhuman ones of them should be more than familiar to die-hard Batman and DC fans. While the Joker is not on board, other legendary villains like Harley Quinn and Mr. Freeze
