They also join the current list of upcomingXbox Game Passtitles, which also includes a few additions for later this month. Namely, that isMLB The Show 23(March 28) andWay to the Woods(which has yet to be officially dated). More are likely to be confirmed next week, though Xbox Game Pass' usual announcement cadence has been a little off in 2023, but these two additions should please fans.

For those unfamiliar with it,Guilty Gear Striveis a fighting gamewith a dedicated and very active fanbase. Multiplayer games tend to do well on services like Xbox Game Pass because it adds to the existing pool or fanbase, and the same will likely apply here when it is added on March 7.Guilty Gear Striveis perhaps most known for its unique hybrid 2D/3D graphics and its intense gameplay, really challenging any fan of the genre.Guilty Gear Strivehas been around for a while to build such a fan base, but the other addition is a brand-new day-one title.
New Xbox Game Pass Games for March 2023
Infinite Guitarsis a day-one release on March 30 and is described as a “genre-melting Rhythm RPG.” It sees players fight against war machines to save the planet, while doing battle as and performing in team battles with characters JJ, Sam, Kaylee, and Ru. All in all, while the jury is still out on its value,Infinite Guitarshas the looks ofHi-Fi RushmeetsOlliOlli World, and that could be a good indicator of its style and approach.
While there’s a wait for these two games, there are plenty of things to check out now, such as the additions ofF1 22andWo Long: Fallen Dynasty. The latter is a Soulslike title similar toNiohandSekirothat appears to be doing well in its release. As we wrote in ourWo Long: Fallen Dynastyreview, “When players are pushing their limits and conquering the game’s mechanics,Wo Longbecomes a hard game to put down. It doesn’t totally reinvent the mechanics that Team Ninja has been building sinceNioh, nor does it fully flesh out concepts fromSekirothat inspired it; however,Wo Longtakes enough from both to make something engrossing.”
