The March 2023 Xbox Game Pass Lineup Features 6 Bangers

Xbox Game Pass just announced its lineup of games coming in March 2023, and it features some pretty great additions. Game Pass already features a fantastic backlog of games that are a lot for any player to get through. If the current offerings aren’t enough, though, you’ll probably find one to play out of these new games on offer.

The newly announced games coming in March are:

  • Guilty Gear -Strive- (Cloud, Console, & PC now)
  • Dead Space 2 (Cloud via EA Play on March 9)
  • Dead Space 3 (Cloud via EA Play on March 9)
  • Valheim (Console on March 14)
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI (Cloud, Console, & PC on March 16)
  • Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom – The Prince’s Edition (Console & PC on March 21)

This is a solid lineup of games, from a pretty wide variety of genres. Any fighting game fan, regardless of whether you’re casual or not, can surely find some value in Guilty Gear -Strive-, one of the most critically acclaimed fighting games in recent memory. Its stylish anime visuals and approachability for newcomers are two qualities given near-universal praise from critics.

If you enjoyed the new Dead Space Remake, you’re sure to get some enjoyment out of the other two games in the trilogy on March 9. Just keep in mind that these are cloud versions, so if your internet doesn’t have the juice for game streaming, you may still be better off finding secondhand copies for older systems. Valheim is a new addition coming on March 14, but only for console players. For PC players, we have even better news: Valheim is already available.

If you prefer strategy games, you’re still in good shape with this update. Civilization VI is a perfect game to sink hours into, with plenty of DLC to get to extend your enjoyment of the game. Ni no Kuni II is a fantastic RPG for you to sink your teeth into. As an added bonus, the included Game Pass version is Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom – The Prince’s Edition, which includes all of that game’s DLC, no extra purchase needed.

This is all in addition to new release additions to Xbox Game Pass in March 2023, like Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Enjoy attempting to beat that game’s frustrating first boss while you wait for your favorite game in March’s lineup to release!
