Fallout 76, Soulcalibur VI, and More Coming to Xbox Game Pass!

Coming Soon to Xbox Game Pass for Console and PC: Fallout 76, Soulcalibur VI, and More

by Megan Spurr, Community Manager, Xbox Game Pass

Welcome back friends, we have more games, more DLC, and now some tips for playing. No matter how you play, make sure your wireless gaming mouse is fully charged, controller 2 is at hand if someone wants to get in a round, and your phone is nearby to remote download the next game (using our handy Xbox Game Pass mobile app) if you’re in the middle of a match. Some more before we jump in:

  • Stand up a few times while playing and throw your arms in the air to do a one-person “wave”
  • Grab something with a long handle, and practice how a Witcher is going to take out Mitsurugi. Apologize in advance to your roommates for any furniture you might damage
  • Build a fort, play some games, defend your base from incoming attackers, and act surprised at how much (or how little) has changed since you last went out looking for supplies
