Xbox Game Pass is a moving library of video games. Each month, a shiny selection of new titles appear on the platform, while others disappear after a short period of time. As long as subscribers have an active subscription, the Xbox Game Pass library is open for exploration and there are many treasures waiting to be discovered.

In the second half of August 2024, three new games will be in the spotlight, including a remastered version of Atlas Trapswhich now features new voice acting, a revamped campaign, and new boss monsters to defeat.

Added to this is the crafting of adventures Core Keeper and driving simulation Star Truckersbut the real headline here is that Game Pass has access to the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Beta this month. Starting August 30, players will be able to try out the game’s new maps, weapons, and gadgets. This should provide a good taste of the game before it launches on PC, console, and Game Pass on October 25.
