Dead Space 2 and 3 join Guilty Gear Strive on Xbox Game Pass

What a month!

Microsoft has announced their Xbox Game Pass schedule for March, 2023, and it’s a doozy!

In addition to Guilty Gear Strive‘s debut on the platform, we also have Dead Space 2 and 3 coming on March 9. Although Dead Space 3 has its own set of problems (and microtransactions), the second core entry in the series is fantastic, and often heralded as the best in the franchise (like, uh, right here!). It’s also perfect to head straight into after playing through the Dead Space remake.

Shifting gears a bit, Valheim and Civilization VI are hitting Game Pass next week, which is a nice little out-there mix of survival and strategy. Then at the end of the month on March 21, Ni No Kuni II (Prince’s Edition) is coming to console and PC. Just in case you needed another lengthy JRPG.

It’s a pretty great reminder of how varied the Game Pass system can be from month to month. Although not every addition is going to hit for everyone, this is such a wide spread that I’m sure someone will be ensnared for another month. I mean, you could probably just justify playing Civ VI most of March and dabble in something else and get your money’s worth.
