[Kvally]

Wow. I like it. A lot.

 

[Certinty]

Hopefully a few sleeper hits like As Dusk Falls and High on Life were this year.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Hollow Knight: Silksong

Holy shit, it's finally coming?

 

[MidGenRefresh]

With the Gold to Game Pass trick this is an insane value.

 

[The Cockatrice]

Holy shit, it's finally coming?

They did announce it was coming in the next 6 months or something but yeah I guess somewhere in April we'll prolly have our hands on it. After so many years, the hype is unreal. I hope it delivers.

 

[Mr Hyde]

It's a solid lineup. Eiyuden Chronicles, Lies of P and Wo Long looks to be great third party offerings.

Hopefully a few sleeper hits like As Dusk Falls and High on Life were this year.

Finished the final chapter of that last night with my partner we loved it

I intially ignored it, due to the art style, but it grew on me throughout.

The titles annouced already are insane.

Personal highlights/games I'd buy day one:
MH: Rise
Atomic Heart
Wo Long
Tokyo Ghostwire
Redfall
Starfield
Forza Motorsport
Flintlock
Darktide
Replaced
Lies of P
Guilty Gear Strive
Ni No Kuni 2
Eiyuden Chronicle
The Last Case of Benedict Fox
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (I'll play this with my partner)

I have hard copies of some of the games above already preordered, but others I'll nab a hard copy for if I enjoy them/on sale down the line for the shelf.

Sadly Rise is digital only, hopefully it gets a retail release with sunbreak later in the year.

My only concern next year is, time.

I just don't have the time or the ability to keep up with game pass games or retail only games.

I need to win the lottery so I can retire & fund a jet set radio future port.

 

[Kiraly]

Best deal in gaming.

 

[Fart Knight]

I cant anymore

 

[GymWolf]

Nice list.

 

[Pelta88]

Looks similar to the announced GP list of 2022.

 

[Rockondevil]

With a couple of purchases of things I want outside this that’s a great year.

 

[anthony2690]

I cant anymore

You can and you will like it

 

[Jibran#one]

If Silksong is day 1 than I'm really really impressed. Hollow Knight is one of the greatest games ever made.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

January 19 and 20 is enough for half a year in itself. That’s 300+ hours of gaming right there.

 

[Paasei]

Age of Empires are already on gamepass. I played that a few days ago. Also seen Persona on it already.

Looking forward to Stalker 2, but I’ll end up just buying it.

Games like Pigeon Simulator seem like filler games just so they have quantity.

Won’t complain, though. Gamepass is an excellent extra/bonus from time to time to find that hidden pearl or a place to try something you aren’t sure wether you like it or not.

 

[Bragr]

Was just about to buy Guilty Gear Strive, I'll hold off on that then.

Considering all the stuff they added through the year, this is not even half of what they are gonna add.

Wo Long, Starfield, Forza Motorsport, Atomic Heart, Monster Hunter Rise, Strive, there is some serious meat on that menu.

And it needs to be because Game Pass needs growth.

 

[reksveks]

Age of Empires are already on gamepass. I played that a few days ago. Also seen Persona on it already.

AoE is referring to the console ports and P5R is only GP currently but not 3 and 4 so depending on your situation you can take a couple out of the list.

 

[Kvally]

Looks similar to the announced GP list of 2022.

Considering most of them released as intended, I guess we are in for a treat!

 

[reksveks]

[GenericUser]

Stalker 2 in 2023 is (unfortunately) a big gamble.

 

[Kvally]

Age of Empires are already on gamepass.

They are not available on Game Pass for Xbox though. In fact they are not available at all on Xbox.

 

[mdkirby]

Decent list. Sadly I think whenever stalker 2 appears in these lists tho it should have a pretty big asterisk. The game is on indefinite pause due to the war, and several of their devs have already died in the fighting. There’s a not insignificant chance that the game will never be finished.

 

[GHG]

Holy shit, it's finally coming?

I know. Probably my most ancipated game for next year on a personal level.

The Low Quality Games for Poor People List®

Is the whole wait until next year mantra finally coming true?

I see a lot of games that are going to consume many hours of my time on that list

2023 is loaded

The Low Quality Games for Poor People List®

Hope you just forgot the /s ...

If not, this is the dumbest post I've seen today lmao.

Btt: awesome list, GP will deliver as expected.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Man, classic no quality there...just quantity.

What will us poor game pass subscribers do!?

 

[Punished Miku]

Food stamps.

We said that about 2022 coming into this year as well to be fair.

 

[Art The Clown]

Gonna be an amazing year for gamers on all consoles.

 

[feynoob]

Looks similar to the announced GP list of 2022.

I think you need an eye doctor for that.

Jk

 

[M1chl]

I don't think that GamePass were that bad this year, given what draught we had. Of course, taste and stuff like that

 

[feynoob]

We said that about 2022 coming into this year as well to be fair.

Difference is that 2023 was super light, and had tons of delays.
Most of these list were supposed to be 2022.

Makes me love my Rewards points even more. All those games, cash price....

 

[rofif]

Doubt Stalker 2 is coming next year

 

[feynoob]

Never.
It will stop once Xbox studios firing those games nonstop.
Until then, we will see those words.

 

[feynoob]

Doubt Stalker 2 is coming next year

Not just doubt. It might not even release at all.
The game has bad luck. Middle of war, some of their devs dying due to war, and the families of those devs at risk of war.

There are tons of issues that is out of their control.

 

[analog_future]

That's one hell of a list already. And in reality it's a fraction of what we'll end up getting through the year.

Just out of that list, I'll be playing:

• Monster Hunter Rise
• Atomic Heart
• Wo Long
• Ghostwire Tokyo
• Goldeneye
• Minecraft Legends
• Redfall
• Forza Motorsport
• Starfield
• Hot Wheels Unleashed
• Routine
• Hollow Knight: Silksong
• Cocoon
• Replaced
• Planet of Lana
• Ravenlok
• The Last Case of Benedict Fox
• Solar Ash

All for ~$40 for the year. Just an insane, stupid value.

Replaced still surprises me to this day. The 2.5D just fits and the environment is spot on, and game play looks great.

 

[Spyxos]

Atom Heart could be really cool? Other games....

 

[Hayabusabruh]

Wo-Long
flintlock
lies of P
Everything is filler. Better to buy them than waste the monthly subscription paying for nothing.

 

[amigastar]

Starfield on Game Pass, now that's awesome. I hope it will come out in the first half of 2023.

 

[Efe]

Gaben is dead, GP is the king now.

 

[Coconutt]

These all apply to the PC gamepass to right? I don't understand how it makes sense financially to release Starfield and Redfall on gamepass on day 1 but happy to take advantage.

 

[MOTM]

Somebody please check with Sony and the FTC if this is even legal. We as gamers may need more protection here.

That list is madness.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

I must have missed the Texas Chainsaw GP announcement.

2022 GamePass was great but 2023 looks like it will blow it out of the water

 

[.hacked]

My back log grows by the day but I did enjoy high on life so much was one of the few games I finished in 2022
