Xbox Game Pass New Games For March Include F1 2021 and Weird West
Microsoft has announced the next batch of games joining Xbox Game Pass in March 2022, including Shredders, F1 2021, Weird West, and more.
The second batch of Xbox Game Pass games for March 2022 has been confirmed by Microsoft, revealing titles covering a variety of genres from racing to role-playing games, to snowboarding adventures. Xbox Game Pass is a subscription service that offers access to a host of games across Xbox consoles, and PC with Game Pass Ultimate.
Currently, Xbox users can enjoy a range of titles with their Game Pass subscription, with the first half of March seeing Marvel's acclaimed Guardians of The Galaxy joining the Xbox service alongside indie games such as Far: Changing Tides. Xbox also recently introduced perhaps the biggest cloud-playable game to date with the massive Microsoft Flight Simulator being made available via the cloud. These additions came on top of the hundreds of other video games offered through the service.
An announcement by Xbox has revealed that the second half of March will bring a host of new games to the Xbox Game Pass service, including F1 2021, Zero Escape: The Nonary Games, Weird West, The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk, and Shredders. Unfortunately, as is the case with the Xbox Game Pass model, with these new titles being added, some must be removed. Action role-playing game NieR Automata, dog-loving puzzle adventure PHOGS!, fantasy RPG hack-and-slasher Torchlight III, and Souls-like sci-fi The Surge 2 will be taken off Xbox Game Pass today, March 15. The full list of upcoming games is as follows:
- Shredders (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X/S) – March 17. Available on day one.
- The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos (Cloud, Console, and PC) – March 17
- Tainted Grail: Conquest (Console) – March 22
- Zero Escape: The Nonary Games (Cloud, Console, and PC) – March 22
- Norco (PC) – March 24. Available on day one with PC Game Pass.
- F1 2021 (Console) EA Play – March 24
- Crusader Kings III (Xbox Series X|S) – March 29. Available now with PC Game Pass and coming soon to Xbox Series X|S
- Weird West (Cloud, Console, and PC) – March 31. Available on day one with Game Pass.
The latest batch of Xbox Game Pass games for March seemingly offers something for everyone. F1 2021 is the latest release in the award-winning Formula 1 racing series, and could offer a change of pace for Xbox racing fans currently playing Forza Horizon 5. Meanwhile, Zero Escape: The Nonary Games is a bundle that offers players four Chunsoft games, with remastered versions of Zero Escape: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors, and Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward. Weird West, Devolver Digital's answer to Fallout and Red Dead is a top-down action role-playing game that blended the dark fantasy and Western genres, following the story of five bounty hunters on the American frontier encountering supernatural elements. The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk is a comedic XCOM-esque tactical fantasy RPG that sees seven typical Dungeons & Dragons escaping traps and puzzles as players venture through floors of the titular dungeon on their quest. Finally, new-release snowboarding game Shredders come to Game Pass on March 17, followed by Gothic point-and-click adventure Norco, which releases on March 24.
This latest selection of Xbox Game Pass games continues to offer fans across all genres something to enjoy on Microsoft's immensely popular Game Pass service. Xbox Game Pass is widely considered to be one of the best deals in gaming, with users able to access a huge catalog of games from the original Xbox to the Series X for a monthly fee. As fans eagerly await Xbox's next Game Pass announcements, there should be plenty of new content to explore in the meantime.
