Xbox's remaining Game Pass additions for October include Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 and The Casting of Frank Stone
After cramming dozens more games into the service and announcing a 50 percent price increase for the Ultimate tier, Microsoft has revealed the rest of the Game Pass additions for October. They include some games that were previously confirmed to join Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass on their release day, including Ball x Pit (October 15), Keeper (October 17) and Ninja Gaiden 4 (October 21).Starting today, Game Pass subscribers on the Ultimate, Premium and PC plans can try out a store management game called Supermarket Simulator. Baldur’s Gate 3 fans who have been meaning to check out the first two main entries in the series can hop into the enhanced editions on PC via the Ultimate, Premium and PC variants of Game Pass starting on October 9.On October 14, folks on those three Game Pass plans can get a pre-Halloween horror fix with The Casting of Frank Stone. This is a Dead by Daylight spinoff from Supermassive Games that taps into the kind of narrative-heavy gameplay the studio used in the likes of Until Dawn and The Quarry.The other remaining Game Pass additions for October are:The Grinch: Christmas Adventures – October 15 (Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass Premium and PC Game Pass)Eternal Strands — October 15 (Game Pass Premium, already on Ultimate and PC Game Pass)He Is Coming (Game Preview on PC only) — October 15 (Game Pass Premium, already on Ultimate and PC Game Pass)Ninja Gaiden 2 Black – October 15 (Game Pass Premium, already on Ultimate and PC Game Pass)Pax Dei (PC) – October 16 (Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass Premium and PC Game Pass)Evil West – October 21 (Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass Premium and PC Game Pass)I played some of Eternal Strands earlier this year and dug it quite a bit. It’s an action-adventure game that lets you do some really neat things with elemental abilities. I enjoyed what I played of The Casting of Frank Stone too. That said, Ball x Pit (I got hooked on the demo this summer) and Keeper are the picks of this bunch for me.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/xbox/xboxs-remaining-game-pass-additions-for-october-include-baldurs-gate-1-and-2-and-the-casting-of-frank-stone-172448097.html?src=rss
