A October 2022 looking for really rich Xbox Game Passalready related to the wave games to be released in the first half of the month and others that we already know are other titles that are getting a lot of attention. That’s why, after a similarly packed September, we’re entering the heart of what’s always been one of the busiest seasons for the video game market, with an abundance of new games. The result is always the same: an unsustainable backlog, but a great desire to try new things, along with these constant other games, from which several indie games are also emerging that are of great interest. While the issue of purchasing Activision Blizzard, which could significantly expand the Xbox Game Pass games catalogue, remains, so let’s have an overview of the games coming in October 2022 in the first half of the month for Microsoft subscribers. service.
Chivalry 2 – Console, PC and Cloud, October 4
For those who want some healthy medieval hits but don’t really intend to get hurt, chivalry 2 is the best choice. At its core, it’s a first-person action with multiplayer traction, equipped with armor and weapons clearly aforementioned historical era-themed, where we’re called to throw ourselves into the struggle of other times. These are massive hand-to-hand battles for up to 64 players from various iconic situations of the time, from open-field battles to sieges of castles and fortifications, and that’s why we’ll be able to experience it first hand. A soldier to choose from from 4 classes and 12 subclasses, each characterized by specific skills, weapons and fighting styles. The chaos created by these medieval maxi fights is remarkable, but Chivalry 2 is still a great game and retains a well-defined gameplay structure.
Medieval Dynasty – Xbox Series X | Q, 6 October
The interesting one, available for a while on PC Game Pass, is Xbox Series X | Coming to S Medieval Dynasty, survival with elements of governance set in Europe in the High Middle Ages. Despite being in early access for a long time, Render Cube immediately proved to be a very pleasant game due to its profound reconfiguration of medieval settings and the specific social and daily life dynamics of the time. In the role of a young man fleeing from the war front, in the Medieval Dynasty, we are forced to confront a variety of problems, first suddenly and rigidly linked to survival, and then increasingly broad and complex, as we attempt to forge a new community and self-create. – enough to break with the typical power dynamics of the time between the nobility and the clergy. A real immersion in the toughest Middle Ages.
The Walking Dead: Full Season One – PC, October 6
The first season of the Telltale video game The Walking Dead is probably the most important, and downloading it to Xbox Game Pass is practically mandatory if you haven’t played it before. Actually, the problem is the fact that it arrived perhaps a little late in the Microsoft subscription service, given the huge spread of the series. Anyway, if you haven’t delved into Telltale’s reworked undead world first, downloading is highly recommended: The Walking Dead: Completing the First Season Contains five episodes of a series of point-and-click narrative adventures based on the Robert Kirkman comic, with interactive scenes and choices entrusted to the player that can change the course of the story. The setting, history and characters are also so characterized that it is truly an experience not to be missed.
The Walking Dead: Season Two – PC, October 6
If the existence of the first season is not enough, it is here too The Walking Dead: Season Two It’s in full format on Game Pass for the PC version. This is a sequel that is completely in line with the first episode regarding the game’s structure and mechanics, but offers something clearly new in terms of narrative, starting with the main character, now Clementine. The series consists of five episodes that were very well received by critics and viewers for the features that always made the first season a success: above all, the atmosphere and characterization of the characters. That’s why Telltale’s strengths reappear in The Walking Dead: Season Two, which will likely (but not necessarily) be played from start to finish after the first season is complete for a more complete view of the story.
Costume Quest – Console and Cloud, October 11
We’re approaching Halloween and it’s the perfect time to play mission costumeA seasonal classic. It’s exactly an RPG based on this holiday, and it sees a group of guys go out in the evenings in their own costumes for the typical “joke or joke” tour, but this soon turns into a real adventure, an epic. A monster kidnaps the hero’s brother and from there begins his journey in search of the missing child; this takes on the look of an RPG with turn based combat where you control a party of men / warriors. costume used by various characters. Developed by Double Fine, Costume Quest came out ten years ago, but its appeal has remained perfectly intact, and if you’ve never tried this weird adventure, the advice is to do it now: Saturday morning cartoon and adventure The old-school spirit of the 80s truly deserves to be experienced fully.
Eville – Console and PC, October 11
The beginning of Game Pass’s early days bad, a title that looks very special. It’s essentially a “multiplayer social interruption” game, a strange designation referring to the tradition of board games like Lupus in Tabula, which has also recently surfaced in video game form. Eville adds to the deep-seated and irresistible nature of such games a remarkable degree of identification provided by the setting: in fact, we find ourselves taking on the role of a medieval village resident or a conspirator. it acts without being discovered by the other party, thereby unmasking the conspirator or, conversely, trying to ward off suspicion. Basically, it is similar to the famous Among Us, but in a decidedly different context and modified mechanics, but with the need to always act in the shadows, somehow infer and direct others.
Dyson Sphere Program – PC, October 13
Another launch on day one of October Game Pass, Dyson Sphere Program A complex and interesting space simulation in which we must try to build the most efficient industrial manufacturing machine possible: the megastructure Dyson Sphere, which can orbit a star and absorb its power to be converted into energy for humanity. The game offers a procedurally generated environment with different types of stars and planets that you can try to build to keep the Dyson Sphere running at its best. Once a usable surface is reached, we will have to design production lines, build and improve structures by communicating with each other to create the perfect machine for collecting and converting energy resources. Automation and interconnection as much as possible between different parts of the factory. The Dyson Sphere Program follows in the footsteps of Factorio and Satisfactory, but also reaches new levels of complexity.
Scorn – Xbox Series X | S, PC and Cloud, October 14
Another absolute debut among the most anticipated of this October 2022, directly on Game Pass, plus Insult: Ebb Software game that has been in development for a while and finally arrived in full form. It is a title that finds the main identity element in HR Giger’s characterization based on the fear inherent in his style. For the rest, it still remains a rather mysterious object: It has long been mistaken for some kind of first-person shooter, but with recent testing, its nature has become more and more based on real horror adventure in first-person. At least in the early stages of Scorn, the puzzles that fit well with the overall bio-mechanical design, are well thought out and, above all, dominated by very strange puzzles – probably will somehow already exist – are more than fights. Of the game world that uncomfortably mixes mechanics and organic elements. All in a truly unique atmosphere.
A Plague Tale: Requiem – Xbox Series X | S, PC and Cloud, October 18
Definitely the most anticipated game of this release A Plague Tale: Lamentation, a luxury first-day launch on Game Pass. After the success of A Plague Tale: Innocence, we expect some really great things from this sequel that looks like it will bring a significant evolution, albeit technically, to the Asobo franchise.
We can’t wait to experience the new game mechanics, but the idea of returning to that dark and fascinating medieval world is enough to keep us waiting for A Plague Tale: Requiem with a certain intensity. Amicia and Hugo are called upon to embark on an even bigger and more challenging new adventure as the two brothers embark on an island that may hold the secret to rescuing Hugo, but it’s clear that this will require facing other challenges and enemies in a single fight. to survive.
While we await the review, we point you to our latest attempt at A Plague Tale: Requiem to get to know you better.
