The second game is Echo Weaver, which is a knowledge-based Metroidvania where you have to “master an unraveling time loop.” Its day one Xbox Game Pass release is on October 8th, although there’s already a free Echo Weaver demo on the Xbox Store if you fancy checking it out ahead of time.<\/p>\n

And finally, the third confirmed game for the next few days is Neon Abyss 2, which again launches on October 8th. This is a roguelite run ‘n’ gun shooter featuring beautiful pixel art and up to four-player online co-op, and its PC early access period has received a “Very Positive” rating on Steam. Next week will mark its 1.0 release across all platforms.<\/p>\n

We’ll leave you with more details about each of these games down below, but definitely don’t be surprised if Microsoft adds more to the list on Tuesday – we’ll be keeping an eye out and will let you know if that happens.<\/p>\n
