The latest batch of games headed toXbox Game Passhas been revealed, courtesy ofXbox Wireon Tuesday. For the first half of August 2024, subscribers can expect a smaller wave of games, but one that includes the addition of the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, as previously reported andcorroborated by Windows Central.

Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy marks the second Activision Blizzard King game to be added to Microsoft’s subscription service in recent weeks, withCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 being added back in July. After acquiring Activision Blizzard King in October 2023, Microsoft has opted to take a drip-feed approach, slowly adding games into Xbox Game Pass instead of launching everything at once.

As usual, there’s also a handful of games that are exiting Xbox Game Pass in the coming weeks. If you want to keep playing these games, you’ll need to buy them. As a reminder, you get a discount for buying a game while it’s still in the Xbox Game Pass library, so act fast and you’ll save some money.

Hopefully seeing two Activision Blizzard king games added to Xbox Game Pass in as many months is a sign that the faucet is being opened, at least a little bit. I still am not expecting some huge wave of games to arrive, but it would be nice to see this cadence continue, with a game or two added every month from here on out.

There are alotof older Call of Duty games in particular, and while I know those games are some of the most popular titles for players to buy via backward compatibility, I’d still appreciate the ability to revisit those campaigns (or check out a couple that I missed out on) without spending hundreds of dollars.
