Watch Dogs 2 isn’t just the best installment in Ubisoft’s Watch Dogs trilogy, it’s one of the best open-world games the studio has put out in years. PowerWash Simulator is available via Game Pass on Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. It’s a delightful, peaceful game that never fails to relax me after a long week. And while it might sound like boring yard work, it’s actually quite meditative.īlasting the black film off of a colorful slide provided me with one of the biggest serotonin bursts I’ve gotten from any piece of media in years. Sure, you can take special jobs where you wash something wild like a Mars rover, but it’s really just about making things clean.
XBOX ONE GAMES UPGRADE
There are some minor upgrade and currency systems, but PowerWash Simulator mostly takes a minimalistic approach - you power wash stuff, no more, no less.
XBOX ONE GAMES PROFESSIONAL
As the name suggests, you’re a professional power washer, and your job is to use your washing tools to obliterate grease, grime, and goop off of vehicles, buildings, and even entire playgrounds. PowerWash Simulator is the perfect game to sit on your couch and space off to. PowerWash Simulator Image: FuturLab/Square Enix Inside is available via Game Pass on Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. So take advantage of your Game Pass subscription and jump into Inside fresh and unspoiled. Inside is all about its haunting mood and visuals, making it an experience you can’t quite explain without giving it away. It pulls at your curiosity enough that you’ll keep ambling forward, through the horrors, until you finally see the credits. It’s scary, but beautiful - like the lure of an angler fish.

You’ll explore, platform, and puzzle-solve your way through a variety of areas, and most likely meet a swift and unexpected death a few times along the way. In Inside, you play as a small boy in a red shirt investigating a giant factory/secret lab. Whereas Limbo - the studio’s first game - showcased the dangers of nature, Inside is all about the horror humans can inflict upon one another. Inside is the second of Playdead’s minimalist side-scrollers.
XBOX ONE GAMES PC
Here are the 29 PC and Xbox Game Pass games that you should be checking out if you subscribe to Microsoft’s flagship service. With the sheer size and the bounty of choice it offers, Game Pass can be a bit overwhelming to digest. Past first-party day-and-date releases and Xbox Studios games, Game Pass offers some of the best third-party and indie games out there, including titles like Watch Dogs 2 and Mass Effect Legendary Edition. And many expect similar moves to come for games like Overwatch, Diablo 3, and maybe even World of Warcraft, with Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard still churning in the background. Microsoft’s Bethesda acquisition saw great titles like Skyrim and Fallout 3 come to Game Pass. And the service is always evolving, adding new games each month, with many of the titles available across multiple Xbox consoles and PC through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

From new titles like Nobody Saves the World to legacy juggernauts like Halo: The Master Chief Collection, it’s still the easiest way to keep up with gaming without breaking the bank. Over halfway through 2022, Xbox’s Game Pass service is having another strong year.
