Six solid additions in September

The headlines will focus onGears 5, and rightfully so. Microsoft’s policy of adding all its first-party games to Xbox Game Pass the day they release is one of the industry’s best bargains. That, alone, justifies the subscription price for a lot of people.Gears 5— likeForza Horizon 4and (I guess)Crackdown 3before it– is the milkshake that brings all the boys to the yard.

But it’s the stuff that rounds out Xbox Game Pass that elevates it. Look no further than September’s new additions for a fine example. Over the course of the next two weeks, Xbox Game Pass is getting:Dead Cells(September 5),Metal Gear Solid HD Edition: 2 & 3(September 5),Creature in the Well(September 6),Gears 5Ultimate Edition (September 6),Enter the Gungeon(September 12), andGonner(September 12).
