If you’d like nothing more than to get your hands on the new Microsoft Flight Simulator, but feel that the price is too sky-high for your budget, fear not. Microsoft is adding the critically-acclaimed flight sim to the Xbox Game Pass, with even more games announced for the future.
You can check out all of the new additions over on Xbox Wire. Most notable are Microsoft Flight Simulator for PC and Spiritfarer for PC and Xbox. Both of these are available to play right now if you subscribe to Xbox Game Pass.
Don’t run off to play them just yet, however; there are plenty more games to mark on your calendars. For example, on August 20, four games—including Battletoads and Don’t Starve: Giant Edition—will join the Game Pass library.
August 28 will see Wasteland 3 added, September 1 will welcome in Crusader Kings III, and September 3 will welcome Resident Evil 7 Biohazard into the family—just in time for Halloween.
Again, these are only our choice picks for the coming weeks, so be sure to check out the blog post for all of the details.
The blog post is not all positive, however. Be sure to finish playing the following games before they vanish from the Xbox Game Pass library:
Leaving August 31
Creature in the Well (Console and PC)Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams – Director’s Cut (Console)Metal Gears Solid 2 & 3 HD (Console)Metro: Last Light Redux (Console)The Jackbox Party Pack 3 (Console)
Leaving September 1
NBA 2K20 (Console)
Leaving September 7
Red Dead Redemption 2 (Console)
If you can’t finish any of these games before the deadline, don’t worry. If you buy a game after it has disappeared from the Xbox Game Pass library, your saves will transfer over. Allowing you to continue where you left off.
In previous weeks, Microsoft has given Xbox Game Pass subscribers a lot of new content to try out. And now we know about even more of the games coming to Xbox Game Pass in the near future. What’s more, the company has already opened up the Project xCloud beta on Android to Ultimate pass holders.
