It’s a new month, which means it’s time to say hello to a bunch of games coming to the Xbox Game Pass subscription and goodbye to a bunch of others. Here are this month’s picks:
Final Fantasy VII HD
Coming to: Xbox One, PC
Available: Aug. 13
Once synonymous with PlayStation, the beloved 1997 JRPG has recently seen its way to nearly every platform, including mobile, Switch and of course, Xbox One. And now, the venerated classic joins IX and XV as Final Fantasy options for the Xbox Game Pass. Don’t be confused, however: The 2020 Final Fantasy VII Remake is still exclusive to PlayStation 4, and will be until at least next year.
Man of Medan
Coming to: Xbox One
Available: Thursday, Aug. 6
The first entry in the “Dark Pictures Anthology” from the makers of Until Dawn, Man of Medan received mixed reception by offering a shorter, less in-depth interactive horror movie experience. Despite its flaws, it can still be a fun, spooky time with friends, either in-person or online.
Darksiders: Genesis
Coming to: Xbox One
Available: Thursday, Aug. 6
Darksiders: Genesis is an isometric action-adventure game featuring the series’ first co-op gameplay as you and a friend battle through heaven and hell.
