Cars, Tetris, and anime demons!

Here are the next batch of Game Pass titles:

This is my first time hearing ofMerge & Blade, not to be confused withMount & Bladewhich is also on Game Pass. Merge & Blade is a hybrid between puzzle games and auto-battlers. Rounds will start with a Tetris-like mini-game, but instead of shapes, you’re guiding different unit types and merging them together. You then use your completed party to raid castles and kill monsters. Mixing - or merging - Tetris into a new genre is a recipe for success, so I’ll definitely be downloading this one.

Developer Atlus have already bought three of their Persona games onto Game Pass, and they’re continuing that spree with their cyberpunk JRPGSoul Hackers 2.Despite releasing on all consoles and PC - a rarity for Atlus - Souls Hackers 2 still seemed to go under the radar. I’ve never touched the game, but turn-based combat always calls out my name. Plus, it’s about a group of hackers beating up demons in Japan. What’s not to love?

F1 22is the latest racing sim to join the service, courtesy of EA Play. A car enthusiast, I am not. Although, I’m sure this one’s just as glossy as the rest. Bonus points if the engines sound like popcorn exploding.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynastyis the big new ‘Day One’ game. Team Ninja’s upcoming action game is set in a fantasy version of the Han Dynasty, complete with a demon infestation. Ed got to play an early demo of the game and he came away impressed by itsaggressive combatand hulkingpig manbosses.

If you’re playing Multiversus orApex Legendsyou can enjoy free DLC packs as part of the Game Pass Ultimate Perks. We also have a list of games that areleaving the serviceon March 1st, so you may want to speed up if you’re midway throughOctopath Traveleror Alien Isolation.
