September 2023: A Pivotal Month for Xbox Game Pass Subscribers

September heralds an exciting phase for Xbox Game Pass subscribers with a slew of eagerly awaited games making their way to the platform. With the coming of titles such as Bethesda’s Starfield and Neowiz Games’ Lies of P, subscribers can anticipate a month filled with diverse gaming experiences. In this article, we delve deep into each prominent release, offering a detailed analysis of what gamers can expect.

Embarking on an Interstellar Journey: Starfield

In the vast panorama of gaming experiences coming to Game Pass, the action role-playing game, Starfield, holds a special place. Developed by Bethesda, Starfield promises a journey through space that is as bizarre as it is exhilarating. Set in a NASA-punk universe, it offers gamers the opportunity to venture into uncharted territories in a spacefarer role-playing adventure.

According to Kotaku staffer Ethan Gach, Starfield might be “the weirdest big new game experience” of the year. Players can delve into this Early Access game on Game Pass starting September 5 at 8 p.m. Eastern. Despite being available at no additional cost for subscribers, it has still managed to top sales charts, showcasing its widespread anticipation and positive initial reception.

Entering a Dark Fairy Tale: Lies of P

Slated to arrive on Game Pass on its launch day, September 19, Lies of P presents a narrative that contrasts starkly with Starfield’s cosmic setting. Developed by Neowiz Games, this title immerses players into a grim adaptation of the Pinocchio tale, set against the dark elegance of the Belle Époque era. As depicted in Kotaku writer Levi Winslow’s impressions post, players will navigate Pinocchio through a world dominated by mechanized threats, on a mission to find Geppetto and end an uprising against humanity.
