March 2022 has been an incredible month for Xbox Game Pass, with Microsoft regularly adding new games to the service throughout the month, including multiple day one releases. March 2022 is winding down, and while there are only two more new Xbox Game Pass games to look forward to this month, they are both day one releases that should be exciting for subscribers of the service.

There are two day one Xbox Game Pass games set to drop next week. The first will come on Tuesday, March 29 in the form of the console version of Crusader Kings 3. Crusader Kings 3 has previously been available on PC, but is just now making its console debut on March 29 and is doing so as a day one Xbox Game Pass game. The PC version of Crusader Kings 3 earned widespread critical acclaim, and so strategy fans on Xbox should be excited that it's finally coming to consoles.

Weird West has some strong early buzz and while the jury is still out on if it lives up to the hype, it will be interesting to see how fans react to it come launch next week.

Thanks to Crusader Kings 3 and Weird West, Xbox Game Pass subscribers have at least two new day one Xbox Game Pass games coming next week, but it's possible there will be even more in store for fans. After all, Microsoft has a tendency to kick off each month with new Xbox Game Pass games, so it's quite possible that Friday, April 1 will bring with it another day one Xbox Game Pass game or two.

However, that's just speculation at this time. As it stands, Microsoft has not completely pulled the curtain back on its plans for Xbox Game Pass in April 2022. However, even if there are no new games come April 1, it's probable Microsoft will reveal the new Xbox Game Pass games for April 2022 on that day.
