Xbox Wire tags only Gears of War: E-Day and Echo Weaver as Game Pass. Other press lists also put Neon Abyss 2 on the service, but Xbox's does not. The list does not say which Game Pass tier (Ultimate, PC or Premium) covers each game, so check Game Pass before downloading. Three launch deals cut the price: Voltaire: The Vegan Vampire (was 19.99), Deck of Haunts (was 19.99) and PAPERHEAD (was 19.99).
Gears of War: E-Day, and when
The unlock is simultaneous worldwide, at 8:00 a.m. Pacific (15:00 UTC). In Mexico City that is 9:00 a.m., calculated with UTC-6. The game comes to Xbox Series X|S and PC, with Xbox Play Anywhere: one purchase covers both platforms. Anyone with the Premium edition or the Premium upgrade of Game Pass has been playing since Oct. 1, according to Xbox Wire. Xbox describes the game as "built from the ground up" on Unreal Engine 5.
The other Tuesday release with press coverage already is Star Wars: Galactic Racer, which averages 88 on Metacritic on PlayStation 5. Kingdom Hearts Collection is listed on Xbox for Oct. 6, with Play Anywhere.
The price in Mexican pesos is still missing: the list comes from the US store, and the Mexican price was not checked.
