    Anyone know if Kingdom Two Crowns has arrived on Game Pass yet? Was due to be there yesterday but no sign of it. Sad I know, but I loved Kingdom New Lands so looking forward to the new one

    Yes, it is available on my games pass app. Download the app from the playstore and login via your xbox account. You can select to download it from there.

    Im looking forward to trying Pro Evo tomorrow
    Fantastic addition. Game Pass is really killing it now.

    Left trigger

    Its actually Left Bumper to use the shield as a defensive item and Left Trigger to use it as an attacking item.

    You hold Left Bumper while in combat to absorb damage.

    Just remember while the shield is up your stamina regen is massively reduced. You need to drop the shield regen your stamina and then put the shield back up again.

    I got a month's sub for a €1 a while back, which expired a few days ago. Last night I was able to sign up for another month for €1 again for some reason!

    Busy time. I pre ordered Red Dead 2 and have barely played it. Much prefer the indie titles coming out on game pass.

    Its a fantastic game, really fantastic. I bought it when it released and 100% completed it. Well worth playing.

    from Game Pass on Twitter

    Must be good if they also just go "BTW, Ori and the Blind Forest is also available today."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭ZiabR


    Nice, Tomb Raider or Middle Earth? Hmm.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,911 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    Ffs, stop! I am dead serious now. I have 4 new games downloaded right now and barely any time.
    Got back to work after my foot injury and being flat out ridden at work. Fortunately I am off 24-26 and will be able to play something more. And finally, finally use my elite controller!

    I'd say middle earth - from whence it came!

    For a split second I thought it was the Ori sequel, damn it.

    Cant find any updates this morning. Anyone have anything this morning on what the game is?

    Looks like it could be the original Life is Strange - the full season is available on Game Pass now.

    Great game if you haven't played it yet. Completely thought it wasn't going to be my cup of tea, but got totally hooked - went out and bought Before the Storm instantly after finishing it and will get Life is Strange 2 (when the season is complete - I can't be waiting from episode to episode!)

    Hmm ok, I already have 100% on Life is Strange. Was a good game, very Telltale like. Surprised there hasn't been more on Twitter about it.

    Life is Strange confirmed

    Ori and The Will of the Wisps is in the 'coming soon' section of an ad I was sent for Game Pass, can't find a date online for the actual proper release apart from '2019' though.

    Absolver looks interesting. I'm finding I get a lot more longevity out of indie games these days. It's got to be the best thing about Game Pass that you get exposure to games you never would have played otherwise.

    Agreed, the indie games are amazing at the moment. I am looking forward to giving Absolver a try.

    Is Absolver the one that was on PS plus a few months ago? I liked the idea of it but in practice I didn't find it too great. The game was essentially a loop if I recall I got to the end twice and gave up. Really saw little point to going again just to learn more moves and wasn't keen on the PvP elements.

    Though I came away feeling I missed the point of it somewhere? Probably with avoiding the PvP.
