Gowans a bunch of games were put back on Game Pass in June that were previously removed - like D4 for example. They'll need to be added back in to the OP but I don't have the full list.
Still find it mind-boggling that games like FH4, Gears 5, Ashen and Battletoads are going to be on Game Pass day one - that's when it's really going to move up a gear.
At least we know we're definitely getting FH4. I can only assume it's a licensing issue, or they're just holidng back for some rainy days.

Ahh hate not having the full list, if anyone has it I'll add it back asap
Solid month. I wonder how the contract works for MS getting brand new games on there day one. Lump sum payment, higher royalties based on number of downloads, etc.
Nice. Purchased Shadow Complex for Xbox 360 back when it was released but never played it. Will play the re-master instead. LOL.
When does Ashen release? Looks real good. Anyone know?

No date yet. Just 2018. But the game looks finished really. And there was a preview event yesterday.
Nice. Do you know when the embargo lifts for that preview event? Thanks.
Just downloaded Next Up Hero.
It's fucked. There's a stutter every second and occasionally it goes crazy jerky for no reason. Done a hard reboot too.
Needs a patch. How do these things not get picked up? It's obvious as soon as you start the game.

It played perfectly fine for me last night (unless it's just the audio that's the issue as I had it muted).
honestly didn't expect anything from next up hero.....
I'm addicted!
Game is seriously fun and challenging.
What console is this on? I'm on Xbox One S and it runs flawlessly

As far as I know none of these are Play Anywhere. Abzu and Shadow Complex are on the Microsoft Store on W10, but they are not Play Anywhere titles.
As someone who mostly uses GamePass for Sea of Thieves on PC, that is absolutely annoying! MS should have definitely made a move for PC players by now.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's only been Sea of Thieves and State of Decay 2 for PC players since they started the service...
As of now I think these are playable:
- Gears of War 4
- Halo Wars 2
- Sea of Thieves
- State of Decay 2
- Super Lucky's Tale
- ReCore Definitive Edition
- Zoo Tycoon Ultimate Animal Collection
- Halo Wars
- Riptide GP: Renegade
It'd be good if there were more PC games on the service but, to be fair, they market it as an Xbox service. It's only by the nature of Xbox games being Play Anywhere that Game Pass has anything in it for PC users.
Is it strange to assume that we'll see GamePass for Windows 10 when Age of Empires 4 and Gears Tactics are nearing completion?
Hmm, i hadn't thought of that. I suppose they might not hit Game Pass? Was it just 'Xbox 1P games' that were announced to hit Game Pass day and date? Age of Empires HD isn't on the service. I dunno!
Game Pass has not even launched on PC yet, you are just using an exploit for Xbox Game Pass. Phil was very specific at E3 when he said the service will at one point launch officially on PC and with a good lineup.
Yes, of course - maybe I worded that poorly. They didn't add anything new other than those two games after the initial lineup that included the rest of the Play Anywhere titles you listed there.
You can download Abzu, Human Fall Flat and Shadow Complex Remastered now. Search in the store.
The others weren't available (can't check on Oblivion as I own a digital copy).
edit, all live now.

Great.
I really like Game Pass. Got me into The Division, which I refused to play before.
I wouldn't call Game Pass on PC today an "exploit". It's completely intentional and fully supported that Play Anywhere games like Sea of Thieves, Gears of War 4, and State of Decay 2 are available to Game Pass subscribers on PC.
But at the same time, it's true that Game Pass hasn't really launched on PC today. Game Pass is not marketed to PC players because there aren't too many PC games available on the service. You're still obviously welcome to subscribe to the service if there are enough Play Anywhere games which interest you, and you'll be fully supported along the way in terms of technical ability to play those games, but Microsoft isn't acting like Game Pass is intended for PC gamers right now.

Beat the second to last level of Superhot, which took me around half an hour. Went to use the restroom, so I pressed start. It restarted me at the start of the level, and after 30 minutes of trying to beat it again I just got pissed and uninstalled the fuckin' thing. Between this and Clustertruck, indie games having shitty endings is a theme this week.
I started Abzu last night and beat it. It was pretty cool. Worth the short investment in time for sure.
I played a lot of Oblivion when it came out but I never did finish the main quest so I am revisiting it. I'm a Morrowind gameplay guy but I gotta say I am enjoying the nostalgia and improved X performance. I just don't know how much time I want to put into this game and whether or not I should try and power level throughout it.
Complete speculation, but I wonder if it's a marketing thing. Like if you put Forza Horizon 3 on Gamepass this close to 4's release, maybe people would get their fill and it would hurt sales of 4.
But isn't 4 going to be on game pass? Anyone that has game pass won't buy it anyways.
Checking out the Game Pass section this morning and I noticed that where it says "Continue Playing" there's a list of all the games on the service you've played before (obviously) Oxenfree, Sea of Thieves, Mega Man and so on. But Rocket League is there too. Now I own Rocket League and play it on a weekly basis, I don't know if this is just some kind of weird glitch or if that's the game that will be added during Inside Xbox?
Enjoying my time with my new Xbox One X. Had so many doubts because i own a Pro already but it was money wel spent. Gamepass is amazing and so is BC. Playing Lost Odessy again and man the joy and nostalgia ! After Lost Odessy it is Blue dragon and Vanquish. And indeed i notice the difference between pro and One X, on the One X the games are so much sharper. And how some BCgames look is amazing, some f'king black magic at work right here.
Do they release games on gamepass on a regular basis ?

I noticed Rocket League in there, too. Surprise announcement incoming or a glitch?
