Sony’s MLB The Show 21 has already been confirmed for Xbox Game Pass on day one but Microsoft has some other heavy hitters coming this month. On April 8th, Grand Theft Auto 5 and Zombie Army 4: Dead War will be available on the surface, both for consoles and cloud while the latter also arrives on PC. Considering that Zombie Army 4 is included in PlayStation Plus for April, it’s good to see Xbox players also getting it for free.

Also coming on April 8th is Disneyland Adventures and Rush: A Disney/Pixar Adventure, both playable through the cloud. The former is about exploring Disneyland and its various attractions while the latter sees players exploring worlds from films like Finding Dory, Toy Story, Up and so on. NHL 21 arrives on April 12th for console via EA Play while Rain on Your Parade, an intriguing game about a cardboard cloud that ruins everything, is out on April 15th for consoles, PC and cloud.

Chucklefish’s tactical strategy title Pathway arrives on April 15th for PC while MLB The Show 21 releases on April 20th for console and cloud. This is most likely just the first wave of titles announced for Xbox Game Pass so stay tuned for more details later this month. Of course, a number of titles will also be leaving this month. Check out the full list below:

April 15

• Deliver Us the Moon (Console and PC)
• Gato Roboto (Console and PC)
• Wargroove (Console and PC)

April 16 (EA Play)

• Madden 15 (Console)
• Madden 16 (Console)
• Madden 17 (Console)
• Madden 18 (Console)
• Madden 25 (Console)
• NHL 18 (Console)
• NHL 19 (Console)

After the critically and commercially acclaimed Wargroove, Chucklefish has another sleek looking strategy title on the way. Developed by Robotality, Pathway is fairly different in that it uses tactical combat equivalent to XCOM with a story reminiscent of Indiana Jones. Check out the launch trailer below to see what we mean.

Boasting five campaigns with different difficulties, there are 16 different characters to unlock, each possessing their own abilities and strengths. Each campaign will also have its own different storyline and encounters with 400 different hand-crafted story events to encounter (like saving villagers or exploring different areas). Procedural generation also promises that no two scenarios will be the same.

Thankfully, unlike XCOM, if you fail then your squad will become stronger and not die permanently. Any loot gained is also retained on death and there’s both weaponry and treasures to discover. Pathway will be coming to PC first on April 11th and hopefully, we’ll see it on Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch in the future as well.
