Today is another drop of Xbox Game Pass titles. It added a new game with rave reviews yesterday and already has 4 games announced for early June. Not to mention, the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase is set to have some major Game Pass announcements. All in all, it’s looking like a good couple of months.
Because Game Pass users technically get a total of 15 games today, spread across two specific titles. The PC Version of Game Pass is getting Cricket 22 (as it’s already available via Cloud and Console), while Pac-Man Museum+ is a collection of 14 games.
Cricket 22 is obviously a sports sim, which introduces revamped bowling and field controls, an after-touch system, a new direct-hit system, a new tutorial, and more. It should be noted that, while it introduces some new elements to the franchise, its OpenCritic Rating comes in at 60. That doesn’t necessarily mean fans don’t love it, but it may not be everyone’s cup of tea.
The classic Pac-Man is the big winner of today, launching day one on Game Pass with a ton of games. Many may consider Pac-Man old hat, but the franchise is a classic for a reason. Getting to play through a collection of his best games on Game Pass proves its value, as it does time and again. Furthermore, this is all housed within an arcade-like hub where players can unlock cabinets, figures, decorations, wallpapers, and more to create their own arcade layout. The following games are what fans will find as part of Pac-Man Museum+ on Game Pass:
- Pac-Man
- Super Pac-Man
- Pac & Pal
- Pac-Land
- Pac-Mania
- Pac-Attack
- Pac-in-Time
- Pac-Man Arrangement (Arcade Version)
- Pac-Man Arrangement (Console Version)
- Pac-Man Championship Edition
- Pac Motos
- Pac’N Roll Remix
- Pac-Man Battle Royale
- Pac-Man 256
While there’s room for a surprise release or two on May 30 or May 31, these are the last two games currently announced for Xbox Game Pass in May 2022. Even if there are no surprises, June will be here with more games in the blink of an eye. Fans should be aware that several titles are leaving Game Pass on May 31, which include the following: EA Sports NHL 20, Farming Simulator 19, Knockout City, Resident Evil 7, Spellforce 3: Soul Harvest, Superhot: Mind Control Delete, and Yes, Your Grace.
Xbox Game Pass users get a handful of games every month.
