It's summer, but despite this vacation-themed period, Xbox continues to expand its Xbox Game Pass offering. After the great batch at the end of June, the Redmond company unveils the titles that will arrive throughout the first half of July. Attention, there's some big news.

Legend of Mana and Trials of Mana

Already available in the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate offer, Legend of Mana and Trials of Mana will arrive on July 2nd in the Game Pass Standard offer. Fans of action-RPGs can thus (re)discover these two titles. The first is a remastered version of the 1999 classic, with improved visuals and a rearranged soundtrack. The second is the 3D remake of the title released in Japan in 1995.

Ultimate Chicken Horse

Going through a platform game is not always easy. Doing it with others, with a little competitive edge, is very enjoyable. Clever Endeavour Games wanted to go even further by integrating a creation mechanic. Essentially, players must compete on levels they build, placing traps and other dangers to slow down others while trying to dodge them. Even though the title is a few years old, it remains a good alternative for spending enjoyable evenings with friends. You will have no reason not to play it, as the title joins the Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, and Game Pass Standard offers starting July 3rd.

The Ascent

With its cyberpunk universe and polished visuals, The Ascent managed to captivate a certain audience upon its release in 2021. The achievement was particularly notable as the game was created by Neon Giant, a studio composed of about a dozen people who skillfully utilized Unreal Engine 4. If you missed this shooter playable both solo and in co-op, then you will have a second chance on July 8th. The title will be added to the three Game Pass offers, namely Ultimate, PC, and Standard.

Minami Lane

The next day, on July 9th, Xbox invites you to discover a more peaceful experience. The pressure will decrease with Minami Lane, a relaxing management game that requires creating and managing your own street. It's up to you to build some buildings, set up shops, and ensure the happiness of the residents. To enjoy it, you will need the PC Game Pass or the Game Pass Ultimate.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4

This is the big event at the beginning of this month. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 lands on its official release day, July 11, in the PC Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate. After a very successful Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2, Activision invites all skateboard enthusiasts to play the compilation of episodes 3 and 4, all with revised visuals and a structure adapted for the occasion. Indeed, the levels of the fourth episode are now timed.

High on Life

To end this batch, starting July 15, FPS fans will be able to play High on Life. This first-person shooter has some peculiarities, starting with extremely talkative weapons. Players will need to listen and collaborate with them to fight against Garmantuous and his plan to turn humans into drugs. Noteworthy detail: the title was overseen by Mark Justin Roiland, the co-creator of the successful series Rick and Morty.
