Edge of Eternity received mostly negative critiques from critics, while the reception of Midnight Fight Express was somewhat mixed. Death Stranding, on the other hand, has a polarizing response, making it essential for subscribers to try it during its availability on PC Game Pass to determine if it aligns with their preferences.
