Xbox Game Pass adds new titles Dead Space and Like a Dragon: Ishin

Xbox Game Pass is getting a surprisingly rich mid-October update, with the headliners being relatively new games — 2023’s Dead Space remake and Like a Dragon: Ishin. The platform’s first update for the month had relatively few games, but the new update has almost double the amount of content, with three day-one launch titles in addition to the aforementioned 2023 titles. The trade-off is that we are losing one of 2022’s biggest titles at the end of the month.

The three launch titles for the month are city-building sim Cities: Skylines II (Oct 24), rhythm battler Headbangers: Rhythm Royale and climbing adventure game Jusant (both Oct 31). Dead Space and Like a Dragon: Ishin round out the 2023 original titles (having originally been released in January and February, respectively). Ishin is available now and Dead Space joins on October 26.
