The second wave of incoming October Xbox Game Pass titles was revealed today. Although there isn't a big name Bethesda-published title included like last time, it is a rather interesting month for subscribers with eight more games joining the fray. From Xbox Game Studios arrives Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition to finish up the franchise remasters, which lands alongside indie hits like Katana Zero, Supraland, and Heave Ho.
As usual, the games are split between the PC and Xbox One subscription variants. One game from the bunch is also joining the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription's cloud gaming portfolio for Android users.
