The Game Pass library is constantly in motion, and this week brings a fresh wave of changes. While we welcome a unique new simulation experience to the service, it’s also time to say a fond farewell to a few fan-favourite titles.
Let’s dive into all the latest updates hitting the Game Pass lineup.
As always, there are new adventures landing on Game Pass this week. Although, in fact, it is a singular new adventure, with the addition of just one new game. Alongside that, three shift out to make space going forward.
RoadCraft (Cloud and Xbox Series X|S) – September 16th
Get ready to get your hands dirty with RoadCraft, an advanced simulation game that puts you in charge of a disaster recovery company.
Your mission is to reshape devastated areas and restore local industries by clearing debris, rebuilding damaged roads and bridges, and much more. This is an advanced physics simulation where you’ll operate over 40 different vehicles, from bulldozers to construction cranes, to clear and rebuild.
You can take on this challenge alone or in co-op with up to four players, working together to overcome the aftermath of natural disasters. You’ll need to carefully plot routes for your transport trucks, manipulate elements like sand and asphalt, and recycle every piece of debris into reconstruction material.
Final Call: Games Leaving Game Pass on September 15th
As new games arrive, it’s time to bid a fond farewell to a few fantastic titles that are departing the service. This is your last chance to experience these games before they’re gone!
All You Need is Help (Cloud, Console, and PC)
This innovative co-op puzzle game from the creators of PixelJunk is all about teamwork. It requires adorable, fluffy cube-shaped creatures to work together to solve challenges and reach their goals.
All You Need is Help is designed for four players, with its simple controls and quirky voice features making it a fun and accessible experience for all ages.
Wargroove 2 (Cloud, Console, and PC)
Fans of turn-based strategy games, take note!
Wargroove 2 offers a deep and engaging experience strongly reminiscent of the Advance Wars series. With its wealth of content, new campaigns, and a host of new characters, it’s a game that offers a lot of fun.
As our 4.5/5 review noted, “Wargroove 2 strongly reminds of Advance Wars, and that is as good a recommendation as you can get. If you need more, can I point you to the amount of content included and the fact that it is great fun to play. If you like a strategy game, Wargroove 2 is an easy sell, but even if you’re new to the scene, I urge you to have a go.“
We Love Katamari Reroll+ Royal Reverie (Cloud, Console, and PC)
Get ready to roll!
We Love Katamari Reroll+ Royal Reverie is a charming and addictive puzzle game where you play as the Prince, tasked with rolling up everything in your path to create a giant star. This updated version of the classic game features new content, including challenges where you play as the King in his youth.
Our 4/5 review found it to be a delight, stating, “We Love Katamari REROLL + Royal Reverie doesn’t add much more that Katamari Damacy REROLL hadn’t already added… But you really shouldn’t sidestep it either, as more of the same is ‘super-dooper’, as the King of the Cosmos would say, since the same is so instantly charming.“
With the arrival of RoadCraft (download it from the Xbox Store) and the departure of these three fan-favourites, the Game Pass library is once again in flux. Be sure to jump into the new addition and give a proper send-off to the departing titles before it’s too late!
