Xbox Game Pass is back to offer a perfect weekend to discover or rediscover great titles from the catalog. This time, we have two recommendations that are very different, but equally powerful: one for fans of tactical combat in futuristic environments and another for those who want to relive the best times of skateboarding on console.

Both games are available on Xbox Series, Xbox One, PC, and Cloud, so you can enjoy them however you prefer. And if you’re thinking about what to try out these days, here are our two highlighted suggestions.

Game Pass Recommendations for the Weekend

The Ascent – Available since July 8th
This isometric shooter set in a cyberpunk world puts you in the shoes of a worker trapped in a collapsing corporate megastructure. What follows is a descent into the most dangerous levels of the city, with intense shootouts, skill customization, and optional co-op play. Ideal for solo or co-op play, with an atmosphere reminiscent of Blade Runner and adjustable difficulty.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 – Available since July 11th
The return of the classic skateboarding games is one of the most anticipated moments of the month on Game Pass. This modernized compilation includes updated graphics, multiplayer, and refined controls, while maintaining the arcade essence that made the series famous. Whether you’re looking to reminisce about the tricks of the 2000s or get hooked for the first time, it’s one of those releases that grabs you from the first minute.

If you’re looking for a varied weekend with frenetic action and good music, this combination is hard to beat. Both games are added to the catalog this month and reinforce the service’s offering with highly-regarded experiences by critics and players.
