Xbox Game Pass - Harold Halibut, Botany Manor, LEGO 2K Drive, Diablo 4, Evil West, Control:UE, Dead Island 2 out now

Ah gooseberry fool, I was SO close just then. This is going to do me in if I don’t manage it,

strawberry floating. NAILED. IT.

Oh crap, that’s such a relief. I’ve been playing that damn challenge for weeks, on and off. Finally got it on the last day it’s on Game Pass. I’m putting it down to the skillz boost from having my second jab.

All that effort over an achievement. I mean, what's the point? What is it even worth anyway? No-one looks at your card. No-one cares about those hours you've put in. You're wasting your life, man.

Congrats dude!

Haha, I know, and it’s only a 60-pointer too.

But seriously, I would have been just as determined if it had been a non-Achievement challenge preventing me from getting 100%.

Early heads-up that Carrion came to Game Pass last July, so that could be the next casualty.

Leaving middle of the month -

CrossCode
Downwell
Endless Space 2
EA Sports UFC and EA Sports UFC 2 (EA Play and Xbox Game Pass)

A heads up btw, the Grounded Achievements are back dated, as in, as soon as you boot it up you'll get several achievements for stuff you already did....

A Plague Tale Innocence next gen update is out now for Series X/S.

It's in Gamepass, I highly recommend.

Amazing, I remember reading about The Forgotten City a while back and thinking how cool it sounded. What an incredible couple of months this is for Game Pass. Loads of really solid single player experiences to go with the multiplayer offerings.

Just watched trailers of both, they look great… this month is genuinely insane with Flight Sim and The Ascent dropping alongside these.

Every day they don't confirm when Judgement is releasing on the service since they teased it in a tweet is a disappointment.

Isn't there like 8 Yakuza games in Gamepass? I mean.... I'm playing Like a Dragon at the mo and I'm in no rush.

I'd prefer something different tbh...

Judgement is the only one that isn't on PC though, so I need it to be on xcloud. I've got all the others on Steam already anyway, except Like A Dragon, which I'm leaving until I've played through the rest, so probably in about 30 years. Also Judgement isn't part of the numbered series, so it's one I can play out of sequence without too much bother, and it's supposed to be tonally pretty different than the mainline Yakuza titles as well.

Like A Dragon is also a spin off, you should check it out.

I know it's not a Kiryu game, but I've read that it still features characters and references plot points from the previous games, so I'd rather leave it until I've played the others still, but definitely looking forward to it, and may cave early. I see it also got touch controls added, and save states transfer from console to PC version, so it's definitely doing more of what I want to see from gamepass titles as well.
