Xbox's next batch of 9 free games is 'incredible value', fans agree

Xbox Game Pass is the gift that keeps on giving and for a bargain monthly cost, subscribers gain access to hundreds of fantastic titles ranging from AAA big hitters to indie darlings.

What’s more, subscribers will also gain access to first-party releases not only from Microsoft but also from Bethesda, a publisher that it now owns. Furthermore, with the Activision Blizzard acquisition nearing its completion, subscribers will soon have even more games to enjoy.

Already, there are plenty of awesome titles to download and play on the service, or if you subscribe to the Ultimate tier, you can stream in an instant. However, it’s not only games that are out now that excite fans but so too does the ‘Coming to Game Pass’ tab which highlights some of the best games that will be arriving on the service soon.

On Reddit, Xbox fans have been discussing the next upcoming nine games coming to Xbox Game Pass, offering ‘incredible value’. The nine games include Starfield, Forza Motorsport, Lies of P, Payday 3, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Sea of Stars, The Lamplighters League, Cities: Skylines II and Persona 5 Tactica.

“Xbox Game Pass is often lauded as the best value in gaming and I totally get it and can agree,” said Redditor Rith_Reddit, opening up the discussion on the thread.

“I have Game Pass Ultimate and PS Plus Extra. Frankly, both are great value for money even if PS doesn't do day one releases like Xbox,” replied Sm0keytrip0d. “Just the number of games on each service you're bound to find something to play and get your money's worth.”

“Yup, Game Pass is great. I'm glad I was able to stack some for cheap using the Xbox Gold conversion while it lasted,” said Pappa_Alpha. “I'll be honest I was getting ready to cancel my Game Pass membership, then they announced Starfield would be available on day one, and I couldn't give that up,” responded a rejoicing Vanden_Boss.

FYI, unless you’ve been living under a rock lately (not Dwayne Johnson), Starfield will be released on PC and Xbox Series X|S on 6 September. Unless you’ve pre-ordered the Premium or Constellation Edition. If so, your release date is 1 September.
