Below are all the new PC games coming to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate “in the coming weeks”. No exact release dates have been stated yet, beyond the promise in Tuesday’s livestream of a “first batch” arriving on Sept. 26. Subscribe to the CDKeys blog to stay updated on Game Pass news.

New Details on The Outer Worlds

In the Inside Xbox livestream, senior narrative designer Megan Starks shared exciting new details on the upcoming spiritual successor to Fallout: New Vegas. As we hoped, in The Outer Worlds you can play the game entirely how you want; meaning you can make narrative-changing decisions with the wide variety of factions, voice lines, and gear at your disposal.

In addition, the plethora of voiced companions throughout the game will feature unique opinions, interactions, and even abilities (like a powerful dropkick). And finally, weird, “mad scientist” weapons have been confirmed for The Outer Worlds; like the hilariously fun shrink ray gun or the painful sounding “mandibular rearranger”. Check out the short but sweet Inside Xbox interview right here.

The Outer Worlds will be available through Game Pass on Xbox One and PC when it releases on October 25.

Hitman 2 – New DLC Revealed
