Like every month, Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass is enriched with new titles, be it on PC, Xbox, or cloud. In this summer season, Microsoft is giving first seat to the multiplayer game Ghost Recon Wildlands, following Watch Dogs 2 – another Ubisoft game from last month. In case you haven’t checked out July’s game list, we got you covered over here.
For newcomers, Xbox Game Pass is a Microsoft subscription service for PC, console, and cloud. It gives access to a huge, regularly evolving game catalogue. Each month, new games are added, and others are withdrawn. As I write this, more than 400 titles are available.
Before going into the complete list, here are two interesting titles to try, in addition to Ghost Recon Wildlands, obviously.
Expeditions: Rome
Expeditions: Rome is a hybrid that seeks to combine different styles by offering turn-by-turn fights, strategy, and management. Its story is quite simple. You play a young legate (a high-ranking Roman military officer in the Roman Army) whose father was murdered by an unknown political opponent. Forced to flee Rome to get to safety, you immediately embark for Greece, under the supervision of some military veterans, to train as a legate and to participate in the repression of a local population rebellion.
Two Point Campus
Have you ever told yourself “If I was in charge of this school, things would be different?” If so, then Point Campus is here offering an opportunity to prove yourself. After the great success of Two Point Hospital, Two Point games is switching to education, taking place in a university. Your goal is to manage a campus where students can attend atypical lessons like chivalry or even magic. You must recruit staff and ensure the well-being of your students in order to develop their full potential, all while making a lot of money on the way.
