Alright, fine, so there’s a good chance this will get lost in the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct news excitement, but the subscription wheels don’t stop turning for anything.
Xbox Game Pass has been on a bit of a roll since late last year, with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and Avowed both hitting the service on day one. The good times keep coming in April, with three more day-one releases adding to your growing list of must-play games. As announced on Xbox Wire, nine games will be added to Xbox Game Pass in April.

South of Midnight will be the crown jewel for most, with its gothic Southern setting and striking art style, but there are two other sleeper hits that you should pay attention to as well. Blue Prince is an intriguing puzzle game that sees you explore an ever-changing mansion to uncover the secrets hidden within. The other game you should pay some mind to is Still Wakes the Deep, an excellent horror experience set on an oil rig off the coast of Ireland. To say any more would give too much away, but our score of 7.5 should be enough for you to shoot it a glance.
