Usually it's around two weeks when new announcements happen regarding added and removed games. Removed games can be seen every two weeks in the mobile app. Sometimes there's a random announcement about games coming or other bonuses but usually it's a Tuesday or Thursday every couple weeks in the Xbox wire blog and/or on Twitter. You'll always find the news in this thread too.
Awesome, thanks guys!New games generally drop every Thursday on Game Pass but sometimes you'll get them on other days (usually if it ties in with the games actual release date). Thursday each week is pretty much Game Pass day though.
They'll do two main announcements each month where they announce the games for the the next two weeks. So, for example, when you see the upcoming 'Coming soon to Xbox Game Pass' post, it won't be all the games for December, it'll be the games for the next two weeks.
They always stealth drop things in between too. Basically get your body ready for just a constant stream of new games. To answer the question - it's not like PS Now/Plus/GWG where you get one drop of games a month. It's a constant stream, generally every Thursday but often in between too.
Base games without DLCs.Are the Dragon Age games (Origins/2/Inquisition) their complete versions or simply the base games without the DLCs?

Thanks, didn't know that. Unfortunately for the 360 games there wasn't a digital GOTY edition.Actually the lower tier EA Play that comes with Gamepass is the GOTY edition for Inquisition, has everything. Not sure about the earlier games.
I don't think Psychonauts has ever been on GP.
Pretty sure it has never been on Game Pass. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if it does soon with the sequel next year.
Some games you came around to at the wrong time. Wanted to try Mutant Yer Zero before it leaves Game Pass. I'm sure it's a fine title, but I've played Gears Tactics and Wasteland 3 recently and just cannot get hooked into this type of scenario at the moment.
And Morkredd Dec 11So Haven, Unto The End, Phogs and Call to the Sea are all coming to gamepass in December. Phew.

Oh are we talking JUST Game Pass and not Game Pass Ultimate? Where did you hear it's being phased out? Is that true for Game Pass on PC as well?They're phasing them out so you will only be able to do the rolling subscription rather than buying a year up front for a discount.
Or directly to the TV, even. That's pretty cool....This is why Game Pass + xCloud streaming to console is gonna be YUUUUUGE

I know you can buy 3mos at best buy for $22 currently (Provided you are in the US). What was the price on amazon?Just bought? they've been unavailable for a couple weeks at least.

Yup I bought today. It's a digital-only code, weird how you don't see it. Maybe because I bought Game Pass Ultimate?Just bought? they've been unavailable for a couple weeks at least.
Fair enough, thanks for the info!I'm can't remember where I read it originally but it coincides with how hard it was to find 3 years worth to top up of Game Pass before doing the upgrade to Ultimate
Is anyone having issues redeeming the New Day pack? When I press 'Get' on the Xbox store it says I have the content, but then the button switches back to 'Get' instead of Queued/Installed, and nothing downloads. The Windows store when I press Get just refreshes the page. Same with the website.new perk

Well that sucks. That is up for purchase for me at Amazon, on Best Buy, etc. I bought a couple now because it's a nice deal ($30CAD for 3 months). Maybe it's a region-locked thing? I'm in North America btw

Yeah, I've been waiting for it to either hit Game Pass or Games with Gold so I could play it.I have a vivid memory that I read somewhere that Psychonauts was on GamePass. Looks like I was wrong. lol
I wanna play it, but knowing that Double Fine is part of Xbox Game Studios makes me wanna wait for it to be included on GP instead of buying the game. Same with Bethesda titles.

ah sorry to hear ☹Thanks, but they cancelled my order, same with best buy and walmart, buying from outside US is a pain in the ass, the only place that accepts my cards is Amazon :(
Did you people played Jedi: Fallen Order? It's really great. I thought it was going to play like a Uncharted game, but it plays like Uncharted + Dark Souls + Metroid Prime. Loved exploring the scenarios and getting all the power ups. Game looks great as well. Should look even greater on XSX (played it on XSS).
Have you launched Gears 5? I had the same but when I opened Gears the pack was unlocked. Otherwise you can try redeeming the pack in game.Is anyone having issues redeeming the New Day pack?

Ah, I didn't think to try that! I'll give that a go, thanks!Have you launched Gears 5? I had the same but when I opened Gears the pack was unlocked. Otherwise you can try redeeming the pack in game.
The GOTY Edition of Witcher 3 is a completely different version from the Vanilla Witcher 3 version on Game Pass... so if you want to transfer progress you HAVE to buy the DLC separately... if you don't mind starting again then you can buy the GOTY edition. It's been like that for a long time, maybe they fix it for the nextgen update? I don't think so.Somehow only started playing The Witcher 3 since getting my Series X on launch day and loving it. Question is, I want to get the expansions now and the GOTY edition on sale for £10. I heard there's some issue with transferring achievements from the base game to the GOTY edition, is that correct? Is it better to buy the expansions separately?
Hell yeah, SSX is so damn good. Love that they brought it back and hope EA returns to it at some point in the future.Having a lot of fun with SSX and Zumas Revenge, theyre EA Play but still great additions to the library.
SSX really nailed the controls, just love that right stick flip to jump. Feels so good cruising down the mountain side.
