Here’s when you can expect each game to hit the service:
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider - February 7
- The Walking Dead: The Complete First Season - February 7
- Pumped BMX Pro - February 7
- de Blob - February 14
- Crackdown 3 - February 15 (Also on PC via Play Anywhere)
- Batman: Return to Arkham - February 21
Crackdown 3, like all future first-party Microsoft games, is coming to Xbox Game Pass on its launch day. In fact, Crackdown 3 will be the first new release on Game Pass to allow subscribers to pre-load prior to release. The first game to launch day-and-date on Xbox Game Pass was last year’s Sea of Thieves.Batman: Return to Arkham includes the definitive editions of the first two Arkham games and their DLC - Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City. In our review of Return to Arkham, we called the collection “Good” saying "Two amazing games get updated for current-gen consoles with an unremarkable port in Batman: Return to Arkham."
Rise of the Tomb Raider came to Xbox Game Pass around this time last year, Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition hit the service just last week, and a flurry of games like PUBG, Hellblade, Ori and the Blind Forest and more came late last year. Colin Stevens is a news writer for IGN. Follow him on Twitter.
