Death Stranding, Ninja Gaiden and more join Xbox Game Pass this month

Twice a month, Microsoft updates its Xbox Game Pass library, announcing which titles will be arriving over the coming weeks and which will be departing. With the line-up for the first half of January now all available to download and play, Microsoft has unveiled the remaining titles set to land between now and the end of the month – including Death Stranding, Space Marine 2 and more.

As always, Xbox’s Game Pass line-up is being released in a staggered form, with the first set of games joining the service from today:

• Death Stranding Director's Cut
• RoadCraft
• Ninja Gaiden Ragebound

Coming Soon:

• The Sims 25th Birthday Bundle – 22nd January
• The Talos Principle 2 – 27th January
• Anno: Mutationem – 28th January
• Drop Duchy – 28th January
• MySims: Cozy Bundle – 28th January
• Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II – 29th January
• Indika – 2nd February
• Final Fantasy II – 3rd February

Unfortunately, Microsoft giveth and Microsoft taketh away, with a total of 7 titles set to depart from the service on the 31st of January:

• Shady Part of Me
• Cataclismo
• Starbound
• Lonely Mountains Snow Riders
• Paw Patrol World
• Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector
• Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap

While the departure of Citizen Sleeper is unfortunate to see (especially as it was a day-one addition), Game Pass subscribers have plenty to check out and look forward to – with Death Stranding in particular being a major boon for the service. Full details on the list of upcoming additions can be found HERE.
