Xbox Game Pass is keeping up appearances by consistently updating its game offerings. To add this week, Game Pass is bringing an exciting and unique game to the table: Bugsnax. As for GeForce Now, well they’re still adding games like they do every week. The big one this week is Need For Speed HEAT.
Bandwidth is 9to5Google’s weekly look at the cloud gaming market beyond Google’s own Stadia platform. Every Friday, we take a look at the biggest news regarding services such as Nvidia GeForce Now, Amazon Luna, PlayStation Now, and Xbox Game Pass, among others. Come back weekly, and don’t forget to check out Stadia Changelog, our weekly roundup of everything new on Stadia.
Bugsnax on Xbox Game Pass
If you’re looking for a cute yet strange game that takes you on an undoubtedly unique adventure, we think Bugsnax would be a great addition to your library. Fortunately, if you have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate with cloud gaming, Bugsnax will be coming to your library without you lifting a finger.
Starting April 28, players can go on a whirlwind ride as a journalist following a trail of lost explorers. On your journey, you come across Bugsnax, a sort of mutation between bugs and snacks. Get it? With this new addition, Game Pass users will get access to a free DLC called The Isle of Bigsnax. The content upgrade adds three more hours to the story.
Need For Speed HEAT on GFN, plus more additions
This one might be something you’ve been waiting for a long time. Need For Speed HEAT is by no means a new game, but it is an extremely popular title for a lot of gamers. Now, GeForce Now subscribers and owners of the game will be able to stream the title to their devices for even better on-the-go play.
When the smoke from all those burnouts clears, you can also check out Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2, which is another title GeForce Now is making available for its users. If neither of those excites you too much, maybe some of these other additions will:
