Almost a week into the month, and we finally have our first look at games coming to Xbox Game Pass in September 2022. After a fairly quiet August mostly held up by third-party games, there’s a range of day-one launches on Game Pass this time around. From licensed movie tie-ins to metal FPS extravaganzas, there’s something for everyone on the service this month.
