Xbox Game Pass welcomes three exciting new games, including a highly anticipated day-one release and Diablo 4. This marks the debut of an Activision Blizzard title on Xbox Game Pass following Microsoft's acquisition of the company in late 2023.

The popular subscription service has been steadily growing, with 13 games added in January and 14 in February. With the latest additions, March 2024 sees a total of 14 new games joining Xbox Game Pass.

The recent additions include Diablo 4, Open Roads, and Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged. Diablo 4, known for its record-breaking success since its June 2023 launch, is a highly anticipated inclusion in Microsoft's subscription service. However, it is currently available only on PC and Xbox consoles, with plans for Xbox Cloud Gaming support for Ultimate-tier members still pending.
