January 2024 saw a commendable start for Xbox Game Pass, featuring popular titles such as Resident Evil 2 Remake, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Hell Let Loose, and Turnip Boy Robs a Bank. The momentum continued into February with the addition of the well-received Persona 3 Reload.
However, the lineup for the remainder of February appears sparse, with only three smaller titles confirmed: Anuchard, A Little to the Left, and PlateUp! While an official announcement for additional games is anticipated, there is still optimism for the inclusion of high-profile releases, ranging from upcoming titles suited for Game Pass to hidden gems from 2023.
Potential Addition: Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered
If added to Xbox Game Pass in February 2024, Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered, developed and published by Aspyr, would be a significant addition. This remaster showcases all three original Tomb Raider games with enhanced visuals and the option to switch between classic and modern control schemes.
Potential Addition: Star Wars: Dark Forces Remaster
Another potential addition is the remaster of the 1995 classic, Star Wars: Dark Forces. Developed by Nightdive Studios, this remaster offers an updated visual experience, making it an ideal way to revisit the first chapter of Kyle Katarn's story.
Potential Addition: El Paso, Elsewhere
El Paso, Elsewhere, a game drawing inspiration from Blade and Max Payne, received critical acclaim in 2023 but did not gain mainstream attention. Its addition to Xbox Game Pass could rejuvenate its popularity, offering a modern-day Max Payne experience with stylish slow-motion gunfights against vampiric foes.
Potential Addition: Resident Evil 3 Remake
Building on the success of Resident Evil 2 Remake's inclusion in January 2024, the addition of Resident Evil 3 Remake would further enhance Xbox Game Pass. Despite its brevity, this high-quality remake is essential for fans of the franchise.
