Xbox Game Pass is getting a slew of new games in the second half of July, starting today, July 19. The new arrivals include Watch Dogs 2 — the much-improved, semi-open-world action-adventure set in a fictionalised version of the San Francisco Bay area. Other titles include As Dusk Falls, launching day one on console, cloud, and PC, alongside some much-anticipated DLC for the racing simulator Forza Horizon 5. These games and more will be available to all Game Pass subscribers free of cost.
Gamers in India can currently purchase their first Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription for Rs. 50, after which users get charged Rs. 499 per month. The plan includes access to hundreds of high-quality games on console and PC, same-day release for Xbox exclusives, member discounts, and free in-game content. The package also includes an Xbox Live Gold subscription which allows for seamless online multiplayer gaming.
Without further ado, here’s a list of all the new games coming to Xbox Game Pass, starting July 19.
