Xbox Game Pass for PC is starting to look as appealing as its console equivalent, with a bunch of good games joining the service throughout October. The highlight isBack 4 Blood, which has already been confirmed, but it’s worth remembering you can jump right in come October 12 rather than pay full price.

Visage is also joining the service come October 7. It’s a survival horror heavily inspired by P.T, and it’s bloody terrifying, if a little inscrutable at first. Elsewhere, Totally Accurate Battle Simulator joins on October 5, which is an excellent physics sandbox for people who prefer their videogame battles totally inaccurate.

Here’s the list:

October 5: Totally Accurate Battle SimulatorOctober 7: The Procession to Calvary, VisageOctober 12: Back 4 Blood, Destiny 2: Beyond LightOctober 14: Ring of Pain, The RiftbreakerOctober 15: The Good Life

As per usual, there’s a handful of games leaving the service too: Gonner2, Heave Ho, Katana Zero, Scourgebringer, Tales of Vesperia HD and The Swords of Ditto all leave on October 15.

Xbox Game Pass for PC is $1 for the first month, and then$10/£8/AU$10.95until you choose to cancel.
