Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass has continued to be one of the most popular and well-rated subscription-based services within the video game industry, providing users with an excellent collection of titles. Similar to how PS Plus works on PlayStation platforms, Xbox Game Pass adds new games for players to check out on a monthly rotational basis. Xbox Game Pass offers users a wide selection of titles to download and try out, ranging from adrenaline-pumping first-person shooters to slow-paced indie games. In addition to Xbox Game Pass' selection of third-party games, users can also access nearly every Microsoft-owned title as well, including the entirety of the Halo franchise as well as Doom and Gears of War. Day one releases are somewhat common for Xbox Game Pass as well, with a new indie title being offered on the service the same day it releases on other consoles.
