New Games on Game Pass!
/I guess I’ll be renewing my subscription from this month
I hear Diablo 4 is coming to game pass 28th March! Nice. When that happens and anyone plays it and needs help, let me know.
Heard the same. Should be confirmed in tomorrow’s Coming Soon to Game Pass announcement.
I’ve been waiting for the day. Held off on spending the money. It pays to be a patient gamer…
Tuesday, 20 February - Tuesday, 5 March
A little something something for everyone in the GP bag at the end of February.

That’s it for this month. The next GP library additions should be announced on Tuesday, 5 March.
Probably one of the best lineups in a while honestly. Maneater is probably my all time favorite “modern” game ever so I would highly recommend people play it.
Also always wanted to give BoltGun and Indivisible a try as well, of course the big drop being Diablo 4, nothing quite as satisfying playing a R1 379 game whilst only paying R129.
Tuesday, 5 March - Tuesday, 19 March

A nice selection of games!
I can’t keep up.
Fully agree, which is why having games return to the service is good to see. I never quite finished Super Hot: Mind Control Delete the last time I played it on GP. So now I have the chance. Although the reason I never finished last time was because it got frustratingly tough!
Enjoy! It is a great game, the scenery and graphics are amazingly detailed for an ARPG
I’m very lus to give it a go tonight. Visiting my parents in Kleinmond at the moment and have a nice scenic sunset drive back ahead of us later. But then I might just fire off the download while I get son and wife in bed before I spend some social recovery time with the game.
…aaaaaand it ate up 5 hours of my time.
