Best games to play on PC Game Pass
Halo Infinite
The latest adventure for Master Chief sees him take on the Zeta Ring open world in its full glory. While the campaign is still incomplete, with some hallmark features such as campaign co-op and Forge still missing, it is still very much worth the price of admission. After the campaign, you can then jump into season 2 of the multiplayer, which is free-to-play!

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice
Hellblade, while brief, is one of the best renditions of someone’s deteriorating mental health. It is definitely the best example of a game to play on PC Game Pass as the subject matter may not be for everyone, but it’s a game that definitely needs to be experienced to be believed.
Mass Effect Legendary Edition
A generation-defining trilogy that can be played with your PC Game Pass subscription! Step into the shoes of Commander Shepard once again as you save the universe, romance your favorite partners, and relive this classic trilogy.

It Takes Two
PC Game Pass is definitely a venue to gather friends for a multiplayer run without going through the hassle of setting up a friend’s pass or purchasing the game at full price. While there’s much to be experienced in 2021’s GOTY, you can rope in a friend to experience Josef Fares’ modern classic.

Trek To Yomi is a stylized samurai epic from Devolver that marries side-scrolling action with Ghost of Tsushima’s Kurosawa mode. This short but sweet journey takes you on a revenge quest of Hiroki as he cuts down evil, both alive and dead, in this narrative experience that has to be seen to be believed.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps
A side-scrolling epic that you may have missed from the last generation, Ori and the Will of Wisps is certainly something that every PC Game Pass subscriber must experience. It’s definitely a can’t be missed game especially if you’re a fan of side scrollers and Metroidvanias.
Obviously, there’s more to the PC Game Pass list than just these titles.
