Three Months Of Back-to Back Blockbuster Game Is Launched In Game Pass
This year has been remarkable for Team Xbox, and you, our fans. Srazy's Blog was accepted into the Xbox Game Pass family. We also announced a brand new slate of games in June and released Psychonauts 2 (and Microsoft Flight Simulator) two of the most popular games of the year. 25 million gamers have joined us in Sea of Thieves and your love for Series X-shaped appliances has created the "Mini Fridge" an actual thing. Our players are at the heart of everything we do, and we could not be more grateful for your amazing loyalty.
We are excited to launch three months of back-to-back blockbuster games in Game Pass, just weeks ahead of the Xbox 20th Anniversary in November.
Age of Empires has been an integral part of Microsoft's gaming history for 24 years. The Oct. 28 launch of Age of Empires IV is our biggest to date. It brings the highly evolved real-time strategy game to a brand new generation through Steam and Game Pass for PC. On Nov. 2 Minecraft will be available on Game Pass for PC. In December, the new Minecraft Dungeons Seasonal Adventures will be available. Caves & Cliffs: Part II will be released later in the year.
- On November. 9th, gaming's top racing series returns when Forza Horizon 5's open-world experience in Mexico is accelerated into Xbox Game Pass. Forza Horizon 5 is our biggest Forza Horizon and winner of the Most Anticipated Game of E3 award will launch simultaneously on Xbox Series X
Microsoft Flight Simulator: Game of the Year Edition is available November. 18 as a completely free update for players who are already Game Pass members, with five new aircrafts, eight new airports, new Discovery Flights and tutorials and much-requested community features such as DX12 support. Microsoft Flight Simulator will also launch the Reno Air Races, featuring the fastest motorsport anywhere in the world. It will also be available from Nov. 18.
- The Master Chief returns on Dec. 8 with Halo Infinite. This is the Halo that we envisioned 20 years ago and it's finally here in the biggest Halo game ever made. S and PC. Game Pass Ultimate members will also receive monthly multiplayer rewards as part of the Perks program.
Our teams have also been expanding the games that you enjoy. These last few months you've played Minecraft: Caves & Cliffs Part 1, Sea of Thieves: A Pirate's Life, State of Decay 2 Homecoming, Grounded: Hot and Hazy, and last week's Halo: Master Chief Collection Season 8. We are grateful that these worlds will continue to be explored by millions of you.
Over the last two decades, the Xbox community has turned gaming into an experience of joy, inspiration, education, and social connection. Games can strengthen bonds and create connections between family and friends and offer people new ways to connect.
We invite you to join us on Nov. 15 for a great digital broadcast that will be accessible to all Xbox fans around the world to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Xbox and Halo. While we won't announce any new games the anniversary broadcast will give an exclusive look back at 20 years of Xbox. We'll share more details soon, so stay tuned.
We've been hard at work to bring you three months of back-toback games that launch. And while we hope you'll join us to celebrate 20 years of Xbox history, know that we're hard at work to plan for the future and what's in store for the next 20 years.
