Xbox Game Pass: these four big titles are already confirmed for September
Xbox Game Pass adds more games every month, and September already has some big titles on the docket.
As reported by Game Rant, we know these games are coming thanks to their release dates and the fact they’re day one Game Pass launches.
Star Trucker is the first on the Game Pass list, coming September 3. It’s a truck driving simulator game with a cosmic twist: it’s set in space. Rather than driving through idyllic European forests or the American deserts, you’ll be soaring through asteroid fields.
Also up for grabs on Game Pass is Age of Mythology: Retold, a real-time strategy game where “gods, monsters, and humans collide.” It comes from the creators of the Age of Empires series, so it should be a good one.
Frostpunk 2 is coming to Game Pass September 20. This is the dystopian steampunk sequel to Frostpunk, a game where the last bastion of humanity has tried to set up a small city in a crater to escape the cold. You have to manage the temperature of your residents as well as their political needs. It’s a tough city-building game.
Ara: History Untold rounds out Game Pass’ month on September 24. This is another strategy game, where you’ll build a civilisation from scratch and have it compete with others for world dominance.
Unfortunately, probably the most-anticipated game on the list is Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, which is no longer coming September 5, as it has been pushed back to November 20. It’s an upcoming first-person shooter with survival horror elements, and the sequel to 2009’s Stalker: Call of Pripyat. Russia’s war on Ukraine has led to many delays, but the developers have pushed on, and it should still be launching on Game Pass when it comes out.
Don’t expect to see GTA 6 on Game Pass when it launches, though, as Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says the company makes “rational decisions.”
