Microsoft cited that 16 out of the 20 titles will be available across Xbox, PC, xCloud, and a handful of these games will benefit from “FPS Boost on Xbox Series X/S.” The company, however, hasn’t specified yet as to which titles will receive this boost. That apart, the availability of these Bethesda titles on XCloud service is good news for mobile users, as they will be able to experience the adventure on the go.

Here are the 20 Bethesda games that are coming to Xbox Game Pass list-

  • Dishonored
  • Dishonored 2

The Game Pass membership includes two options- Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Both offer players a chance to try up to 100 titles at no additional cost. The regular Xbox Game Pass costs Rs 489, while the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (includes Xbox Live Gold) comes for Rs 699 a month. Interested users can join for a price as low as Rs 50.

While the Xbox library is growing, the addition of 20 ZeniMax Media titles (from FPS series to old-school survival horror) in the Game Pass seems to be a solid move to take on Sony PS studio.

During the announcement Xbox head, Phil Spencer stated that some ‘new titles’ will only be made available on Microsoft’s platform.
