Coming to PC Game Pass soon:
The Legend of Tianding (November 1) The Walking Dead: A New Frontier – The Complete Season (November 1) The Walking Dead: Michonne – The Complete Season (November 1) Ghost Song (November 3, day one) Football Manager 2023 (November 8, day one) Return To Monkey Island (November 8) Pentiment (November 15, day one) Somerville (November 15, day one)
Alice Bee’s Return To Monkey Island review at launch last month called it “a very good modern point and click game that makes a perfect new entry to a beloved old series.” Looking forward to that one myself. It’s an adventureful month, with Fallout: New Vegas studio Obsidian Entertainment’s Pentiment also coming to Game Pass. That’s their new murder mystery adventure game with a striking style inspired by medieval manuscripts. You’ll also find plenty of adventurous tone (distinct from adventure the genre). Somerville is a new explore-o-adventure amidst alien invasion from a team including the former CEO of Playdead, and does indeed look a fair bit like Limbo and Inside. And Ghost Song is a 2D metroidvania with a sketchy hand-drawn art style, exploring the horrors of an alien moon. Alas, games coming also means going. As happens regularly, a handful of games will leave Game Pass soon. If you’re mid-playthrough, get a fart on.
Leaving PC Game Pass soon:
Football Manager 2022 (November 8) Art Of Rally (November 15) Fae Tactics (November 15) Next Space Rebel (November 15) One Step from Eden (November 15) Supraland (November 15)
Many of the dates for these comings and goings were already known but hey, here they are in handy list form. Microsoft’s blog post has the full listings for Xbox consoles and Cloud too. They’re mostly the same as PC, except Xbox will get the excellent Vampire Survivors on November 10th (it’s been on PC Game Pass for ages) and those platforms already have those two Walking Dead series.
