Tomorrow, November 20, GSC Game World’s long-awaited Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S) hits Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass as another day one launch.
Also on November 20, Little Kitty, Big City (Console) launches into Game Pass Standard. It’s already available with Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. November 20 is a big day for Game Pass, with PlateUp! (Console) also launching on Game Pass Standard.
Moving on to November 26, Nine Sols (Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S) arrives on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. Nine Sols is a lore-rich, hand-drawn 2D action-platformer with Sekiro-inspired, deflection-based combat.
A day later, on November 27, Aliens: Dark Descent (Cloud, Console, and PC) launches into Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, and Game Pass Standard. In Aliens: Dark Descent, you command a squad of Colonial Marines to stop a Xenomorph outbreak on Moon Lethe. IGN’s Aliens: Dark Descent review returned a 7/10. We said: “Aliens: Dark Descent is a fascinating, tense, inspired survival horror RTS with a few too many technical bugs to recommend it without caveats.”
