Xbox Game Pass is entering 2024 fast!

As the new year approaches, Microsoft announced new games that will join the Xbox Game Pass subscription service in the first half of January. Among the eight games to be added to the library is Capcom’s acclaimed Resident Evil 2 Remake, released on January 25, 2019!

What kind of game is Resident Evil 2 Remake?

Almost 26 years old, Resident Evil 2 redefined the horror genre with its 2019 remake. The remake set a new standard by transforming the original fixed-camera PlayStation 1 horror game into an immersive third-person shooter with an over-the-shoulder perspective.

While retaining the core elements that made the original a classic, the remake’s influence is echoed not only in subsequent Resident Evil games, but also in games from other developers, such as Alan Wake 2, Dead Space, and the upcoming Alone in the Dark remake.

Here are the other games that will be added to Xbox Game Pass!

In addition to Resident Evil 2, Xbox Game Pass subscribers will be able to add other remarkable games to their library in the first half of January. Epic action RPG Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is featured, and Xbox-owned studio Compulsion Games’ We Happy Few also returns to the library.
