Xbox Game Pass continues to expand its roster of games, offering an even more diverse set of options for its subscribers. Recent announcements have confirmed that titles like 'Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name' and 'Like a Dragon: Ishin' are on their way to the subscription service. The news, which came from the Tokyo Game Show, also revealed more about what subscribers can expect in terms of gameplay and narrative for these titles. Additionally, other games such as 'Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy' are also slated for inclusion. In this article, we'll go through each of these additions in detail. Like a Dragon Gaiden: Details and Day-One Access Scheduled for a November 9 release, 'Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name' focuses on the intriguing character of Kazuma Kiryu. The game is set after the events of 'Yakuza 6: The Song of Life' and during 'Yakuza: Like a Dragon.' The narrative explores how Kiryu faked his death to protect his family and how he, now operating under the codename Joryu, becomes entangled in a new plot that endangers his loved ones. What's even more exciting for Game Pass subscribers is that this game will be available as a day-one release. This means that on the day of its official launch, subscribers can immediately start playing. Additionally, completing 'Like a Dragon Gaiden' will unlock exclusive scenes in 'Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth,' which is set for a January 2024 release. Like a Dragon: Ishin's Upcoming Inclusion Another title that's creating a buzz is 'Like a Dragon: Ishin.' Already released earlier this year, this game takes a different approach compared to other titles in the 'Yakuza' and 'Like a Dragon' franchises. Set in feudal Japan, players assume the role of Sakamoto Ryoma, wielding a sword and uncovering the truth behind his father's murder. Although there's no confirmed date for its arrival, Xbox has stated that it will be added to Game Pass later this year. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy For those interested in a different flavor of Japanese gaming, the 'Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy' will arrive on Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass on September 26. This game marks a departure from the action and drama of the 'Like a Dragon' series, offering a different kind of storytelling and gameplay. Other Notable Additions and Departures Apart from these, other titles are also being added as day-one releases, such as 'Mineko's Night Market' on October 26, 'Persona 5 Tactica' on November 17, and 'Persona 3 Reload' on February 2, 2024. Subscribers should also note that four new releases will be available in the latter half of September. However, the Game Pass library will lose seven titles during this month, so make sure to check your current playlist. Future Xbox Game Pass Announcements During the Tokyo Game Show, Xbox also confirmed the addition of 'Octopath Traveler II' in early 2024 and provided a first look at 'Altheia: The Wrath of Aferi,' an upcoming action-adventure game. Moreover, there will be a 2.5D "slasher film parodic action" game called 'Hotel Barcelona' from developers Swery65 and Suda51. Conclusion Xbox Game Pass is enhancing its offering with a variety of new titles, enriching the options for its subscribers. Whether it's day-one access to exciting games like 'Like a Dragon Gaiden' or the inclusion of different genres through titles like 'Phoenix Wright,' there's something for everyone.
