"This year has been so far beyond what any of us could have imagined," says Sandfall's creative director, Guillaume Broche.
Subscribers can also look forward to Lost Records: Bloom and Rage, Dome Keeper, Death Howl, and much more in the first wave.
Spencer says that console players have been "streaming 45 percent more" on console and "24 percent more" on "other devices."
Octopath Traveler 1 and 2, SteamWorld Build, Lords of the Fallen, and more will also be leaving the service on November 30th.
Several quality of life changes and new additions, including Immersive Mode, jogging, and light rainy weather, are also included.
New game reveals, Game Pass announcements and an extended gameplay trailer for Tides of Annihilation are also on the menu.
A silent Xbox/Windows tweak resulted in locks, launches, even save wipes for families, before Microsoft rolled it back.
Microsoft also confirms that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl is leaving the service on November 15th alongside other titles.
Game Pass subscribers are being forced to purchase the full game as it exits the service just weeks before its PS5 debut.
Microsoft is reportedly planning to remove distinctions between PC Game Pass and the more expensive Ultimate tier for its next-gen Xbox.
The service is separate from Game Pass and offers "free ad-supported cloud access to some games," but a launch date remains unknown.
Game Pass Premium subscribers can also access Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, He is Coming, and Eternal Strands from October 15th.
Prices remain unchanged "in line with local requirements" with Microsoft to provide "advance notice" before ultimately hiking the same.
"Instead of a discount on purchases, Ultimate and Premium subscribers will earn 10% and 5% respectively in points," said Microsoft.
Xbox’s latest Game Pass price hikes have left many longtime fans frustrated, raising doubts about the company’s current direction.
In a social media post, Lina Khan wrote about the dangers of industry consolidation with Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard.
The tier will allegedly support Xbox consoles, PC, web browsers and handhelds in a public beta before fully launching down the line.
Despite launching eight years, the subscription service reportedly still isn't generating the desired revenue for Microsoft.
Meanwhile, Premium subscribers gain access to titles previously only available in the Ultimate Tier, including Abiotic Factor.
Premium now retails for $14.99 and instead of day one, subscribers will experience Xbox-published titles within a year of launch.
