XBox Game Pass is a reputed subscription service. Each month Microsoft adds a few games for its subscribers to ensure that they always have something new to try. While the console counterpart slightly overshadows PC Game Pass, it is still a great option for those players who prefer to play on PC rather than an XBox.The aim of Microsoft is to serve all its customers, not only just console owners but PC also. Hence many of the games available on PC Game Pass and Xbox Game pass are similar. But there are some excellent game titles which are exclusive to PC version only.
So which are the 3 best PC Game Pass titles?
Dead Space (2023)
It is a remake of the original Dead Space, published by Electronic Arts, available through Game Pass Ultimate and EA Play. It recontructs the classic 2008 sci-fi horror game,and promises to deliver a nicer gaming experience than its predecessor. Although the story plot is the same, the feel of the journey can be very different as weapons suits and maps are more open ended.The players who are new to Dead Space project have the option to directly go into the remake,so they will not feel lost. The players who have played the original Dead Space 2008 version can try this game as they will get a different experience this time.
Starfield
After a long wait Starfield is released and accessible to Game Pass holders.This sci fi game has received a lot of positive reviews and is probably the most important release of 2023.In its pre launch event this game was marketed somewhat as Skyrim in space,but it's not entirely correct as it fails to capture the essence of the game.This game is an original creation which borrows ideas from Bethesda’s past but does not exactly replicates them.So for devoted players this game may not be appealing to them.
Lies Of P
It is inspired from Soulslike in which the self-titled puppet is controlled by players in a bloodborne hellscape where there is death everywhere. The setting of the game is city of krat and it beautifully captures the setting mood and design of the enemies, and some of the enemy bosses are really scary.The combat system is fast and aggressive but guarding is more important than dodging.
