Hey all, I’m just looking for some solid story driven games on Xbox gamepass, that are equally fun to play. I had been recommended the Mass Effect series, and while I believe the story will be great, the first game is an absolute slog to get through right now.
What are some good story games that are equally entertaining in the actual gameplay that are currently on gamepass?
Heck, even just games with solid gameplay will do, if the story is serviceable.
Not all inclusive, just a list of games I’ve personally enjoyed for both story and gameplay. All of these are story-heavy though:
-Dishonored -Dragon Age series -Fable series -Fallout series (3 and New Vegas are my favorites) -Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice -Middle-Earth: Shadow of War -Oblivion -Pillars of Eternity -Shadowrun -Yakuza: Like a Dragon (haven’t played the others enough to have an opinion) -Titanfall 2
IMO? Keep playing ME. It’s worth it.
Were you playing at a soldier class? If so, then maybe try a Vanguard or Adept as the biotic powers are more fun than shooting. Vanguard is especially fun in 2 and 3.
Wolfenstein the new order. Inside. Hollow knight. Hellblade. Pillars of eternity. Titan fall 2. Batman Arkham city.
I like action-adventure games mostly, but here’s my favourites so far on Game Pass:
- Psychonauts 2
- Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey
- Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
- The Outer Worlds
- A Plague Tale: Requiem
- Immortals Fenyx Rising
- Death Stranding
- LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga
- Ori and the Will of the Wisps
Wait is Death Stranding not a PS exclusive?
Also available on Gamepass for PC at least!
It’s a console exclusive, but I believe it’s actually on PC gamepass. So for those on PC, they can give it a try. But I’m on Xbox.
