Xbox Game Pass’s second May wave includes Planet of Lana

Xbox announced the second wave of games coming to Game Pass in May, and the new update includes two launch-day titles and several others. It’s a slightly more release-heavy period than the beginning of May, which only saw a few additions including the ill-received Redfall. For the second half of May, Xbox is giving players more and varied releases.

The first addition, available today, is FIFA 23. It launches on EA Play for PC Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate Members. Electronic Arts said in its recent earnings report that the sports title, which launched last September, the most successful in the franchise’s history. Also releasing this week are Eastern Exorcist, a side-scrolling action RPG about battling demons; and Ghostlore, an “eastpunk” action-RPG with retro-style graphics in which players fight monsters inspired by Southeast-Asian folklore. Ghostlore is already available for PC users, but launches on console alongside Eastern Exorcist on May 18.
