New Xbox Game Pass Game Has Nearly Perfect User Reviews

As of today, April 4, Xbox Game Pass has two new games, one of which has nearly perfect user reviews. How long either game is going to be available via Xbox Game Pass, remains to be seen. That said, now that each game is available via Xbox Game Pass, subscribers can purchase each game, plus any DLC for each game, with a special 20 percent discount. 

Interestingly, the bigger of the two games is not the one with nearly perfect reviews. As of today, EA Sports PGA Tour is available via the subscription service. That said, this game is limited to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate as it is an EA Play addition. For those unfamiliar with it, it debuted back on April 7, 2023 via developer EA Tiburon. Upon release, it garnered Metacritic that range from 72 to 76, depending on the platform. 

The other new game, Lil Gator, debuted a year earlier, in 2022, via Mega Wobble and Playtonic. On Metacritic, it has scores that range from 80 to 84, which is very solid, but perhaps selling the game short because the Steam user reviews are even better. On Steam, 99 percent of 3,135 user reviews rate the game positively. This is obviously very close to a perfect score, which is very, very rare on Steam.
