The Xbox Series X|S guide: every optimized game, future releases, Game Pass and more!

So, 2 Games for Gamepass. 2 games that will slowly come to Gamepass.

This leaves 2 games that aren’t coming to Gamepass - Immortals Fenyx Rising, and Football Manager 2021.

No indication about price, or any details really at all for FM21 though, may indicate possible GP potential.

Football Manager 2019 and 2020 has hit Game Pass PC at some point, so I think it is fair to presume it is coming eventually. Not at launch, though. The game will sell very well in Europe in this first moment.

Edit: The game is now out. It costs $39.99! @Bluehawk357

PSA: Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Siege next-gen patch is out!

The game is 58.30 GB on the Series X and it is available on Game Pass.

Very nice. Will try that asap.

Just a little heads up: the game shows up as Optimized on my Games Library and Game Pass app, but it still shows up as an Xbox One game when I finish downloading it. So I guess the patch is slowly coming out.

Is there any single player stuff or just straight up MP?

There are a few offline operations that serve as a tutorial of sorts. Not worth the 60 GB download, though.

Series S doesn’t seem to have gotten the update Rainbow six update yet. Maybe i need to do a hard reset.

Ok, now the patch is out! Sorry about jumping the gun earlier yesterday.

The good news: the game reduced in size from 58.30 GB to 43.62 GB!

There are a few surprises dropping today! I really hope they are all proper optimizations instead of a patch to improve the game through backwards compatibility.

Super happy that The Division 2 is getting a next gen upgrade. If only The Division 2 was part of Ubisoft Connect so I could transfer the save data from the PS4 version to the Xbox One version.

Bought it on Stadia this week lol.

Why??? lol

Already 60fps over there and was on sale. Also gives me an excuse to use Stadia for a bit.

Oh okay. I currently have The Division 2 on PS4 since that was my primary gaming console for last generation but since I have switched over to Xbox Series X as my primary gaming console for this generation, I was hoping that Ubisoft would add the game to Ubisoft Connect so I could transfer my save file from PS4/PS5 to Xbox One/Series X.

I wasn’t expecting Ubisoft to upgrade the game at all so maybe in time, they will allow players to transfer their game save.
