Xbox Game Pass already has a list of new releases to close out April, and the upcoming week is packed with interesting proposals for console, PC, and Cloud. Microsoft is once again betting big on Day One releases, including science fiction, intense action, tactical strategy, and more laid-back experiences.

The big name for the upcoming days will be Aphelion, the new adventure from DON’T NOD, although other titles like Trepang2 or the return of Heroes of Might & Magic with a new installment that will arrive directly in early access are also noteworthy.
