Xbox is about to launch a Netflix-style game service: Here are its best games
Tech1 min read

Unbelievably, there's no Netflix-like service for video games on the Xbox One. On June 1, that changes with the introduction of Xbox Game Pass for the Xbox One.

Xbox Game Pass

Microsoft

There are 112 games in the Xbox Game Pass library at launch on June 1, with more to come.

The concept is simple: Pay a monthly fee for unlimited access to a library of content.

The service costs $10 per month, and offers unlimited access to a library of over 100 games. You can download as many games as you want, play them for as long as you want, and new games are added monthly.

Xbox Game Pass is slightly different from a Netflix-type service in that the games aren't streamed over an internet connection - they're downloaded, meaning you can play them online or offline. The service lights up on June 1, and there's a 14-day free trial available to anyone with an Xbox One.

But with over 100 games, you might be wondering where to start. We've got some ideas below!
