What’s New on Xbox Game Pass Standard?

The newly added games are Turnip Boy Robs a Bank, Harold Halibut, Go Mecha Ball, and The Rewinder. These selections significantly enhance the diversity and quality of gaming options for subscribers.

Turnip Boy Robs a Bank

Dive into this witty action-adventure where the beloved Turnip Boy teams up with the notorious Pickle Gang. Unlike its predecessor Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, which was a slow-paced action-adventure, this installment is a fast-paced twin-stick shooter with roguelike mechanics. Players will navigate through a bank heist, frantically stealing loot while trying to outmaneuver guards. Expect rich humor and quirky characters reminiscent of the original game. Completion could take around six hours.

Harold Halibut

Prepare to be captivated by the visual beauty of Harold Halibut. This narrative-driven adventure game is set on a city-sized spaceship submerged beneath an alien sea. You play as Harold, an assistant scientist, tasked with uncovering the mysteries needed to restore the ship to its former glory. With a playtime ranging from 15 to 20 hours and a total of 27 achievements, this game is a feast for those who appreciate immersive storytelling. Don’t forget to gather all 71 collectible doodles to achieve 100% completion!

Go Mecha Ball

If you’re a fan of fast-paced action, Go Mecha Ball delivers. This twin-stick shooter allows players to control one of four powerful mechs, each equipped with an array of devastating weapons and combat abilities. You’ll navigate through four challenging worlds filled with ferocious enemies. Players should brace themselves for a tough challenge, as unlocking all achievements is estimated to take around 25 hours, especially with the increasing difficulty levels!

The Rewinder

Inspired by Chinese mythology, The Rewinder is a unique puzzle adventure game where players step into the role of Yun, the last Rewinder capable of interacting with spirits and exploring memories to influence the past. While most players can achieve completion in under four hours, you can extend your gameplay with the DLC Root of Evil, which enhances the experience and slightly increases the completion time to six hours. The DLC is quite affordable at approximately $0.89, making it a worthwhile investment for gamers.
