Maybe Xbox was like we got enough stuff in October, come back next month.

I reckon Legion will drop before that.

4 games for me this time around… That’s the cost for the whole year of GP right there, in one of 24 drops…pretty damn good deal.

A Plague Tale: Requiem, Chivalry 2, Medieval Dynasty and Scorn. Nom nom nom

Costume Quest 1 is a very random drop though,lol, wtf? Super old too. It’s a DF game isn’t it? Maybe they were allowed to add it now for reasons?

I mean, Halloween is coming up and it wasn’t on the service for some reason. Easy padding material I guess.

They forgot to put Persona 5 lol

isn’t that on the 21st so its in the second half of the month?

Yeah, that’s probably going to be announced at the second wave for the month

And maybe part 2 in the near future.

It is, I was surprised they stretched it to A Plague Tale on the 18th tbh. But I suspect they wanted that to headline the first drop of the month, and Persona 5 the second.

I think that’s allready on there tbh.

You’re right!

Yeah, Plague Tale being there when it’s in the second half too confused me.

Completely forgot about Persona yeah. What a month.

Is it odd that we first get 5 and next year the previous two? Or is it storywise completely separate?

Didn’t notice that till Mort pointed it out, i’m guessing the second half will show up on the 18th and they wanted to highlight Plague Tale before that date

They’re separate stories.

I spent a couple hours playing it over the weekend. It’s really not that bad if you’re into zoo sims, it just takes some time to figure out and adjust to how the game works. It’s good to see No More Robots continue to see success with help from Game Pass though. The next game they’re publishing is Soccer Story, and it’s supposed to release on Game Pass this year too.

October was all about the Scorn, Plague Tale, Persona 5 triple-drop for me - fantastic month right there - but Medieval Dynasty is a nice surprise too. And Costume Quest is a wonderful little RPG - it might be a bit old compared to this month’s other offerings, but it’s well worth playing. Game Pass manages to be such a fantastic service even during months without any first party releases (though I guess Costume Quest counts now!). The quality and variety of third party stuff is consistently impressive.
