Ultimate Gaming Excitement: Xbox Game Pass Unveils Thrilling October 2023 Game Lineup!

Highlights

Xbox Game Pass is experiencing a new golden age with several exciting games being added, including Spiritfarer and Payday 3.

October 2023 is set to be an outstanding month for Xbox Game Pass, featuring highly anticipated titles such as Gotham Knights and Forza Motorsport. To enhance the spooky season, it would be fantastic to include horror games like Dead Space Remake and Resident Evil 4 Remake as exceptional additions to Xbox Game Pass.

Starfield has sparked a new era for Xbox Game Pass, with an impressive lineup of games added in the past month. Spiritfarer, Solar Ash, Lies of P, Payday 3, and Party Animals have all been added to the service in September, indicating that Xbox Game Pass is just getting started, as hinted by Xbox's Chief Marketing Officer.

Looking ahead, October 2023 is already shaping up to be one of the best months ever for Xbox Game Pass. With eight games confirmed for release, including notable titles like Gotham Knights, Cities: Skylines 2, and Warhammer 40K Darktide, as well as first-party games like Forza Motorsport and Jusant, and a solid lineup of smaller Indies such as Mineko's Night Market, Lamplighter's League, and Headbangers Rhythm Royale. However, there is one genre noticeably absent from this collection, especially considering that October is the spooky season.

Xbox Game Pass New Game for October 2023: Dead Space Remake

Xbox Game Pass New Game for October 2023: Resident Evil 4 Remake

Let's amp up the horror factor on Xbox Game Pass this October with none other than this year's highly anticipated Dead Space Remake. Widely regarded as one of the finest gaming remakes of all time, Dead Space builds upon the foundations of its 2008 predecessor, taking them to new and thrilling heights. Brace yourself for an immersive experience, as the game offers a captivating blend of an expansive Metroidvania level design, enhanced gameplay mechanics, and a more extensive narrative. With added customization options and bone-chilling gameplay, Dead Space Remake is not for the faint of heart. Prepare for an exceptional addition to your Xbox Game Pass library this October.

It's incredibly rare to see two exceptional horror game remakes released so close together, but that's exactly what happened earlier this year. Just under two months after the Dead Space Remake hit shelves, Capcom surprised fans with Resident Evil 4 Remake, another outstanding rendition of a classic horror title. While many believed it couldn't surpass the brilliance of the original 2005 game, Resident Evil 4 Remake managed to prove them wrong, at least to a great extent. Now, with the release of its Separate Ways DLC, there's never been a more opportune moment for Resident Evil 4 to join Xbox Game Pass.

Xbox Game Pass New Game for October 2023: Alan Wake Remastered

With the highly anticipated sequel just around the corner, now is the perfect time for the original Alan Wake to make its debut on Xbox Game Pass, preferably in its more recent remastered edition. While games like Dead Space and Resident Evil 4 fully immerse players in survival horror, Alan Wake offers a refreshing mix of action and suspense, making it an excellent alternative for those who prefer a less chilling experience this Halloween. Considering that Alan Wake Remastered was already made available on PS Plus in July, there shouldn't be any obstacle preventing its arrival on Xbox Game Pass.

Xbox Game Pass New Game for October 2023: Until Dawn

For Halloween parties and spooky date nights, Until Dawn is an excellent addition to Xbox Game Pass this October. This narrative game stands out for genuinely impactful choices, earning its reputation as Supermassive's finest creation. The cast of classic horror movie archetype characters adds a playful element, allowing for endless experimentation. Although it may not be the most intricate horror game, Until Dawn remains an ideal choice for Xbox Game Pass.
