Waste not your weekend! Check out these fresh additions to Game Pass that will surely capture your attention (August 15-17)

In the ever-growing library of Game Pass, three new additions have caught the attention of gamers worldwide. Let's take a closer look at Aliens: Fireteam Elite, 9 Kings, and the classic dark fantasy first-person shooters, Heretic + Hexen.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite

Step into the boots of a Colonial Marine in this cooperative third-person survival shooter, set 23 years after the original Alien trilogy. Form a fireteam of up to three players and battle against the deadly Xenomorph hordes across four campaigns, each comprising three missions.

The game offers intense, fast-paced action reminiscent of Left 4 Dead, featuring 20 enemy types (11 Xenomorph variants), five distinct classes, over 30 customizable weapons with 70+ mods, and challenge cards for added objectives.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite is now available on Game Pass across Cloud, Console, and PC platforms. Although crossplay is supported, player progress does not transfer between platforms.

9 Kings

For those who enjoy strategic kingdom building and massive battles, 9 Kings offers a unique roguelike experience. Grow an empire, fight rival kings, and strive to become the King of Kings with thousands of build combinations at your disposal.

9 Kings is currently available on PC Game Pass in its Game Preview state.

Heretic + Hexen

While details on Heretic + Hexen's availability and features on Game Pass are not confirmed from the current results, we know that these classic dark fantasy first-person shooters were developed by Raven Software and published by id Software in the 1990s. The games, often bundled together, feature a distinct theme, the ability to aim vertically, character classes, and an inventory.

If you're interested in learning more about Heretic + Hexen on Game Pass, we recommend checking the official Xbox Game Pass library or announcements.

In summary, Game Pass continues to expand its offerings with the addition of Aliens: Fireteam Elite, 9 Kings, and the classic duo, Heretic + Hexen. Each game provides a unique gaming experience, catering to various tastes and preferences. Happy gaming!

Aliens: Fireteam Elite, with its intense cooperative third-person survival shooter gameplay set in the iconic Alien universe, offers a new level of entertainment for gamers on Game Pass.
