Xbox Game Pass Adds RoboCop, and I'm Suddenly Feeling Very...Protected?
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Xbox Game Pass is getting a triple dose of new games, including the cyberpunk-esque RoboCop: Rogue City, the puppet-filled horror of My Friendly Neighborhood, and a surprise shadow-drop roguelite, ensuring that there will be something for everyone.
Alright, listen up, mates! Xbox Game Pass just got a whole lot more interesting. Courtesy of the fine folks at Game Rant, we’ve got three new titles hitting the service, and one of them is bound to scratch that cyberpunk itch for anyone still hopelessly devoted to Night City. I'm talking about *RoboCop: Rogue City*.
But hold on, there's more! We're also getting *My Friendly Neighborhood*, which sounds like a Sesame Street fever dream gone horribly wrong (in the best way, of course), and a sneaky little shadow-dropped game called *He Is Coming* (Game Preview). Sneaky, sneaky!
So, what’s the deal? *RoboCop: Rogue City* is basically a love letter to the original films – gritty, dystopian, and full of satirical jabs. It's a first-person shooter with RPG elements, so think less sneaky-sneaky and more "I am the law!" Frankly, you’re a walking tank; stealth is optional... and probably hilarious if you try it. If you were hoping for a way to relive a grittier, more chrome-plated future, this is probably it. They say it has RPG elements reminiscent of a particular bug-riddled game that it would be wrong to name at this juncture.
*My Friendly Neighborhood*, on the other hand, is a survival horror game with puppets. Yeah, you read that right. Puppets. Eerie, unsettling puppets. Think Muppets gone wrong, like, *really* wrong. It's a day-one console release for Game Pass Ultimate, which is nice. But seriously, puppets? I'm already having nightmares.
And then there's *He Is Coming (Game Preview)*, a roguelite that just showed up without much fanfare. Shadow dropped, as they say. What it is, whether it's any good...that remains to be seen, honestly.
Here's the full rundown of what's new and coming soon (according to Game Rant's intel):
* **RoboCop: Rogue City:** Available now on Standard, PC, and Ultimate (Cloud, PC, Series X/S) * **My Friendly Neighborhood:** Available now on Ultimate and PC (Cloud, Console, PC) – Day-one console release. * **He Is Coming (Game Preview):** Available now on Ultimate and PC (PC) – Shadow drop. * **Back to the Dawn:** July 18 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, Console, PC) – Day-one console release. * **Abiotic Factor:** July 22 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, Console, PC) – Day-one console release. * **Wheel World:** July 23 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, PC, Series X/S) – Day-one release. * **Wuchang: Fallen Feathers:** July 24 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, PC, Series X/S) – Day-one release. * **Grounded 2:** July 29 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, PC, Series X/S) – Day-one release. * **Farming Simulator 25:** August 1 (Standard, PC, Ultimate Cloud, Console, PC) * **Gears of War: Reloaded:** August 26 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, PC, Series X/S) – Day-one release. * **Keeper:** October 17 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, PC, Series X/S) – Day-one release. * **Ninja Gaiden 4:** October 21 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, PC, Series X/S) – Day-one release. * **The Outer Worlds 2:** October 29 (Ultimate, PC, Cloud, PC, Series X/S) – Day-one release.
Oh, and before I forget, three games are leaving Game Pass on July 30: *Gigantic*, *Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess*, and *Turnip Boy Robs a Bank*. So, get your fill of those while you can!
Bottom line? Game Pass is looking pretty stacked for the next few weeks. RoboCop for the dystopian fans, creepy puppets for the horror aficionados, and a bunch of day-one releases to keep us all busy. Happy gaming, mates!
