With these additions, the Core catalog continues to offer variety for all types of players, whether you’re looking to relax by designing your own city or prefer to get lost in a magical universe or engage in cooperative shootouts. Additionally, if everything goes as planned, new games for Xbox Game Pass should be announced this afternoon, and we’ll see what Microsoft has in store for the first half of October, beyond what we already know.

What is Xbox Game Pass Core?

Xbox Game Pass Core is the evolution of what was previously known as Xbox Live Gold. It maintains access to online gaming on Xbox consoles and adds a rotating library of over 25 games that subscribers can download and play at any time.

The service also includes exclusive discounts on the Xbox Store and special promotions. Its price is more affordable than Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass, and it’s designed for those who want to play online but don’t want to give up having a selection of titles in their subscription.

Games coming to Xbox Game Pass Core in October

• Cities: Skylines – Remastered
  A modern classic of urban management, now in an improved version for next-generation consoles. More options, more tools, and everything you need to build the city of your dreams.

• Disney Dreamlight Valley
  A game perfect for the whole family, combining exploration, missions, and socializing with Disney and Pixar characters. From cooking with Remy to sharing adventures with Elsa or Buzz Lightyear.

• Warhammer 40,000: Darktide (Marea Oscura)
