Tomb Raider headlines new wave of Xbox Game Pass titles

The first wave of Xbox Game Pass titles for May 2024 have been announced. Unfortunately, it is a pretty minimal update this time around, featuring just four games. 

The headlining game in this update is Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition, which is very old at this point. Still, if you've never played it, or don't own it on PC or Xbox, then it is now available through Game Pass, so feel free to dive in. While the game is old, the whole modern Tomb Raider trilogy is fantastic, with the first game in particular being a highlight with its action-packed campaign centred on a mysterious island cult.

Here is the full list of titles coming to Game Pass over the next couple of weeks:

  • Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition (Cloud, Console and PC) – May 2nd
  • Kona II: Brume (Cloud, Console and PC) – May 7th
  • Little Kitty, Big City: Cloud, Console and PC) – May 9th
  • Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons (Cloud, Console and PC) – May 14th

On the 15th of May, eight games will be leaving Game Pass, including; Eastern Exorcist, Eiyuden Chronicle Rising, Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2, Ghostlore, Just Cause 4, Norco, SD Gundam Battle Alliance and Supraland Six Inches Under.

KitGuru Says: May is an odd month in the yearly calendar for Game Pass, as Microsoft likes to save the biggest announcements for its annual Xbox Showcase in June.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
