Xbox Game Passlooks a bit quiet for the rest of July, but looks can be deceiving. Three indies, a long-awaited action RPG, and a gorgeous genre mash-up are just some of the games that’ll soon be available. However, Xbox is only announcing additions up to July 19.
There are some comforting games at the top of the list. First, we haveFlock, an indie title that combines the joys of birdwatching and the fun of flying on the back of a giant bird (we assume it’s fun). Either way,section editor Giovanni Colantonio called ita “pleasant expedition to a colorful world that might help you better appreciate your own,” and it’s out now.
Game Pass is also gettingMagical Delicacy, which is also out now. This is a platformer where you cook, um, magical delicacies and deliver them to your neighbors while also discovering more about the world. We haven’t published our final thoughts onDungeons of Hinterberg, out July 18, just yet, but the premise is appealing. You go on vacation to Hinterberg in the Alps, take on dungeons, and just live your life in a new town.
We’re also set to getFlintlock: The Siege of Dawnon July 18, which was announced in 2022 and is set to take on other action RPGs likeElden Ringwith a unique touch that balances traditional weapons and magic.
Finally, there’sKunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddesson July 19. This visually stunning real-time strategy/tower defense/action game was one of thebest games we played at Summer Game Fest,so we’re excited to check out the full release.
Oddly, there don’t appear to be any additions after July 19. The beginning of the post does have a hint for what’s to come: Let’s stay in touch, we have another update for you soon.” It’s likely Xbox has a much larger game hitting the subscription service at the end of the month and will have a dedicated announcement for it.
Here’s everything else coming to and leaving Xbox Game Pass this month.
