A Strong End to January for Game Pass
This update closes out January with a strong mix of major releases and ongoing updates. With Space Marine II and Death Stranding Director’s Cut leading the way, and a solid batch of DLC and returning content rounding things out, Game Pass continues to offer plenty to dig into heading into February.
It’s also worth noting that Quarantine Zone: The Last Check is now available on PC for anyone who may have missed it earlier. It’s a slower game built around making tough calls, where one bad decision can snowball fast, and it stands out from the rest of the lineup because of that.
