Xbox has announced games coming to Xbox Game Pass in this second half of the month, and the news has been quite surprising. But they have not surprised in a positive way as usually happens. Unlike. The games that arrive are fine, but the problem here is that only 3 titles have been included in the Xbox Game Pass catalog, when the normal thing is to see a compilation of no less than 8 to 10 games. What’s going on?
3 games to start the year
This is not the eating of the year that many had imagined. Xbox Game Pass arrives in 2023 including Monster Hunter Rise, Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden to its huge catalog of games, and although they are good games, they are not at all new at the level of what we are used to seeing.
But if there is something that particularly grates on us, it is the negative balance that users receive this month. If, on the one hand, three new games arrive in the catalog, what is striking is that there are 6 games that are definitively saying goodbye to the list of games, so this month subscribers are losing more games for the first time in the service. But what exactly is happening?
they’re up to something
It’s been a pretty watered down announcement, so we can’t believe this is the final announcement for the service. Our suspicions are gaining strength with the rumors that are being heard these days, since they suggest that Microsoft would be preparing some powerful announcement for this month. According to jez cordeneverything indicates that a developer event will take place next january 25and it will be there that major releases of new Xbox and Bethesda games are announced.
This should be a fun week, excited for the days to progress! 💚

Likewise, the Vice President of Marketing for Xbox Games, Aaron Greenberg, dropped on Twitter that it was going to be a very fun week, and that he was very excited about the days that were to come. So yes, something is brewing at the Redmond offices.
What games are going to be seen?
The event itself seems to be focused on showing news from Xbox studios, being able to see things like redfall, Forza Motorsport Y Minecraft Legendscompletely ruling out any type of novelty related to Starfieldsince the Bethesda game seems to continue taking steps in its development.
Returning to Game Pass, we imagine that this event will serve to offer some kind of consolation prize in the form of games that come to the service, since this would complete the few launches that have occurred these days. Or else we wouldn’t understand how they were able to start the year like this, don’t you think?
