Another summer has come and gone and while that can be a bummer, Xbox Game Pass subscribers can at least distract themselves from the end of vacation season with some new video games. Microsoft has announced all the new games coming to Xbox Games Pass in the first half of September. The list includes a scattershot selecti0n of games and DLC including a remaster of the Greek-myth-inspired game by Age of Empire’s creators, Age of Mythology: Retold, the Castlevania Dead by Daylight DLC, and two expansion packs for the survival game Ark.
There aren’t a ton of heavy hitters in this month’s lineup, but there are plenty of titles to pique your interest. In a somewhat fun twist, several of the games just so happen to be themed around different modes of transportation. Soon subscribers can manage transit lines in Train World Sim 5, do some extreme biking in Riders Republic, or go offroading in Expeditions: A MudRunner Game. If highway driving is more your thing, you can drive around the galaxy as a trucker in Star Trucker.
