Microsoft has announced the next round of games that will be joining its Xbox Game Pass subscription program in May, adding on eight more games to the service that already offers over 150 titles.
Just like Sea of Thieves' arrival to the program in March, the Xbox Game Pass will receive the upcoming Microsoft platform exclusive title, State of Decay 2, in May. This move is part of Microsoft's recent decision on releasing all future first-party games on its subscription program on day one.
Here are all the games incoming to Xbox Game Pass in May:
State of Decay 2 is the ultimate zombie survival game in an open world where you and up to three friends build a community of survivors. It’s up to you to establish a base, develop your characters’ abilities, and manage resources to survive as a group in a world where choices matter and every decision has lasting consequences.

Four years into the brutal military occupation, America is on its knees. Philadelphia - once the birthplace of Independence - has become a ghetto, where surveillance drones and armoured patrols keep the population at heel, crushing any dissent with savage force. Her once-proud citizens live in a police state, forced to collaborate just to survive, their dreams of freedom long since extinguished. But in the badlands of the Red Zone, in the bombed out streets and abandoned subways, a Resistance is forming. A guerrilla force, determined to fight for their freedoms despite overwhelming odds and ignite the second American Revolution. But Freedom always has a price…

The blue hedgehog and the red echidna were sworn adversaries in Sonic 3, but in this platform adventure, Knuckles realises that he’s been just a pawn in the schemes of Dr. Eggman (AKA Dr. Robotnik). Knuckles, the former adversary now supports Sonic to chase the common enemy, and each must use their strengths in order to acquire the priceless Master Emerald and save Angel Island.
The sports-esque title Laser League will also be joining the program on the day it arrives on the console. Meanwhile, it seems Pro Evolution Soccer 2018's stay on the Game Pass will end on August 31, so any interested football fans may want to jump in before the expiry date.
The Xbox Game Pass is available for purchase via the Microsoft Store for $9.99 a month for both Xbox One and Windows 10, and there is also a 15-day trial available for first-time users. However, subscribers on Windows 10 will only gain access to Xbox Play Anywhere enabled games.
