Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

KOEI Tecmo surprised with a brand new IP coming day one to Game Pass back in the June 2022 showcase. NIOH never made it to Xbox, so it’s good to see their latest title not only on Xbox but in the sub service

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty follows the dramatic, action-packed story of a nameless militia soldier fighting for survival in a dark fantasy version of the Later Han Dynasty where demons plague the Three Kingdoms. Players fight off deadly creatures and enemy soldiers using swordplay based on the Chinese martial arts, attempting to overcome the odds by awakening the true power from within.

Coming in spring 2023, Forza Motorsport has been built from the ground up to showcase the Xbox Series X|S consoles. The accuracy of our overhauled physics, the beauty of our cars and tracks, our new dynamic time of day, advanced car damage, and real time ray tracing on track lead to a generational leap in immersion. Forza Motorsport is the most technically advanced racing game ever made.

I see what you mean about it not updating/syncing the post to the page.

Looking solid so far. There’s a lot of work to come up with the list and even more as you add blurbs and videos for each title. Appreciate all the work you do.

Just going to manually add things in! because I’m an idiot

Thank you for putting together the list. Many games I am looking forward too. But sadly, any Microsoft games I do not believe till I see them go live. Microsoft let me down to many times since the last gen console for me to have faith in their game launches

2020 and 2021 were great, 2022 was the abberation (due to covid and other factors)

@Doncabesa Would Routine be on this list? It was at the last Xbox Showcase, announced for GP but it doesn’t have a date yet.
