Xbox Game Pass Adds World War Z and Three Other Games

Today, Microsoft has added a foursome of games to Xbox Game Pass that both Xbox One and PC gamers can download and start enjoying immediately. More specifically, it has added two games to Xbox Game Pass on Xbox One and two onto Xbox Game Pass on PC. The former two titles are Yooka-Laylee and World War Z, the latter of which only just released this year. Meanwhile, on PC, Xbox Game Pass owners can now download Stellaris and F1 2018. Obviously, the biggest addition here is World War Z, which hit earlier this year to decent reviews and to commercial success, partially thanks to positioning itself as being similar to Left 4 Dead. As for PC, Stellaris is an excellent strategy game if you're a fan of the grand-strategy genre.

For those that don't know: Xbox Game Pass is available for $10 a month. All subscribers to the Netflix-style subscription service get unlimited access to a vast library of games that's constantly being refreshed with weekly additions and subtractions. In addition to access to a large slab of titles, Xbox Game Pass subscribers also get exclusive discounts, early access to certain games, and every Xbox Game Studios release at launch.

Stellaris: "Get ready to explore, discover and interact with a multitude of species as you journey among the stars.
