Xbox Game Pass is bolstering its library with a selection of new titles throughout August, including several day-one releases for subscribers. The premium tier, Xbox Game Pass Premium, is also set to receive additional games.
For members of Xbox Game Pass Premium, Egging On, a game where players guide a delicate egg through hazardous environments, is now available. It will be joined later in August by BlazBlue Entropy Effect X, Relooted, Starsand Island, Aerial Knight's Dropshot, and Young Guns. These titles will also be accessible through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass.
New releases joining the Game Pass library include Vapor World: Over the Mind, Blood Dungeon, and Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. Vapor World: Over the Mind is described as a narrative-driven souls-like platformer emphasizing deflection combat and will be available through the Game Preview program.
