Microsoft has unveiled new additions to its Xbox Game Pass subscription service, offering subscribers the opportunity to explore fresh gaming experiences. The service, a pivotal element of Microsoft's gaming strategy, has already introduced two games earlier in January before the recent update.
The January 2024 lineup for Xbox Game Pass commenced with the debut of Close to the Sun on January 3, followed by the release of multiplayer shooter Hell Let Loose on January 4. Notably, Hell Let Loose is exclusively available on Xbox Series X, potentially excluding some Game Pass subscribers still using Xbox One. Fortunately, the latest additions are accessible across Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, the cloud, and PC.
Starting from January 9, Xbox Game Pass members can enjoy Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Figment as part of their subscription. Assassin's Creed Valhalla was originally released as a launch title for the Xbox Series X, offering players a vast open world Viking adventure. On the other hand, Figment presents a smaller-scale, yet engaging, musical action-adventure game that garnered positive reviews from critics.
