Leak reveals which 50+ games are coming to new Xbox Game Pass tier
Earlier today, Microsoft announced that 15 new games would be coming to its Game Pass from day one. As we discussed separately, most of these will be available across all of Microsoft's platforms. Beastro will only be a day-one addition for the Xbox Series S and Series X though (curr. $648 on Amazon).
At the same time, various sources discovered what is expected to be called the Xbox Game Pass 'Starter Edition'. A cheaper Game Pass tier, the initial Starter Edition leak teased that '50+ games' would be included at launch, too. According to billbil-kun, they have already been able to find the full list of these games ahead of time.
Writing on Dealabs, the leaker asserts that 58 Starter Edition games will be available from day one. Apparently, Starter Edition subscribers will receive some games missing from Game Pass Essential. Specifically, billbil-kun claims that Doom 64 and Psychonauts (Windows 10) will be Starter Edition titles despite being unavailable for Essential subscribers.
Currently, the same leaker estimates that the Starter Edition will officially launch 'by mid-May'. Hence, we would not rule out a late April announcement at this stage. The full list of rumoured Game Pass Starter Edition games is as follows in alphabetical order:
