Following a relatively underwhelming Xbox Game Pass April lineup reveal, the subscription service has redeemed itself somewhat by confirming that one of the best Assassin's Creed games will soon be making its way to subscribers.
According to an Xbox Wire blog post, two massive Ubisoft games will hit Xbox Game Pass within the next few months.
But first, take a look at the latest Assassin's Creed instalment below!
While we don't yet have a release date for either game, we do have confirmation that For Honor: March Fire Edition and Assassin's Creed Origins will be released to Game Pass sooner rather than later. This will be the very first Assassin's Creed entry to hit Game Pass.

For Honor's base game is already available on Game Pass, of course, so the expanded Marching Fire Edition will simply be available via the option of a free upgrade.
But for many, Assassin's Creed Origins is the most exciting part of this update. The first of the newer trilogy of games, Assassin's Creed Origins transformed the series from a stealth-action game into an open-world RPG more akin to something like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
While it certainly has its critics, many consider the game's gorgeous digital recreation of Ancient Egypt to be among the very best open-world playgrounds the series has ever offered. Packed with brilliant quests, tombs, secrets, and surprises, Assassin's Creed Origins is a game you can easily sink hours at a time into.
It also helps that it has one of the series' best protagonists in Bayek, and an excellent story that explores the beginnings of the Assassins. If it's one you've yet to check out, hopefully you can get on Xbox Game Pass and see what all the fuss is about.
