Xbox Game Pass nabs Grand Theft Auto V (again) for July wave

Xbox announced the first wave of Game Pass titles for July, and a major (albeit aging) game tops the marquee: Grand Theft Auto V. The game launches today on Game Pass and is one of the final two games coming to the service before its price increases. Later in the month, Exoprimal and Techtonica join as Day One launches, along with several other titles.

Xbox announced that Exoprimal would be a Game Pass launch around the time of its reveal, and it releases around July 14. The dinosaur battler features both PvP and PvE combat, and Xbox revealed more details about the story at its recent showcase. The other Day One launch is Techtonica, a construction sim set on an alien planet that launches on July 18.
