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

Game Pass Death Stranding

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.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
