Xbox Game Pass, the service that follows Netflix’s structure expands how users explore video games and find familiar franchises and experiment with other releases they might not have tried without the service. It was earlier this summer in a report derived from Microsoft’s earnings call that disclose Xbox Game Pass users are 40 percent more likely to play more and 50 percent more inclined to buy games over those not subscribed.
To further fuel and diversify the Xbox Game Pass library, Microsoft continues to work out more partnerships with game studios and publishers to bring more games to the service. This month, the Xbox company already told that Football Manager 2022 and Bassmaster Fishing 2022 are to hit the service upon release respectively.
In addition to that, Microsoft on Wednesday told that Echo Generation is yet another example of this. With that announced that the game will launch with its welcoming to Xbox Game Pass next month. You can watch the release date trailer in the video below:
“Set in the ’90s, Echo Generation is a heartwarming story about the supernatural, family, and the nostalgia of growing up in a small town. It has a charming blend of exploration, quests, and unique characters inspired by some of our favorite adventure games we’ve played growing up,” Vanessa Chia, Cococucumber Producer and Art Director offers for a synapse of Echo Generation.
“There’s a lot to experience in Echo Generation and we wanted to create our take on the old-school, Paper Mario-style, turn-based combat, crafted with a special Cococucumber twist. With over 30 unique minigames and a charming cast of characters and pets to level up, there are many ways to customize your build to take on dangerous enemies and bosses.”
Noted, Echo Generation is one of the featured ID@Xbox titles that was playable during the second annual Summer Game Fest Demo Event that took place earlier this June. Expanding on the significance of the showcase, titles from the feature also went on to Xbox Game Pass such as Sable which released for the service this month.
Elsewhere this week, Microsoft went to state that Marvel’s Avengers is also slated for its addition to Xbox Game Pass. Adding on, the game is to also release for the service with all story DLC for the game at no additional charge. You can read the full report by heading here.
