Sniper Elite 4, OlliOlli 2: XL Edition And More Coming to Xbox Games Pass

Today, Microsoft revealed the next round of games coming to the Xbox Games Pass for the month of November, expanding the 100-plus catalog by five new titles. Among the games announced, fans of third-person tactical shooters will be happy to see Sniper Elite 4 joining the collection, and the side-scrolling skater OlliOlli 2: XL Edition will also be gracing the ranks with its colorful arcade-style gameplay.

Other titles coming November 1 include Sheltered, the survival simulator that tasks you with keeping your family alive in a bunker after the apocalypse, and the side-scrolling run-and-gun shooter packed to the gills with popular video game references, Rise and Shine. On November 6, players will also be able to jump into the high-octane, action-packed indy combat racer, Grip: Combat Racing.

In addition to these five titles, the announcement also told players to stay tuned to Inside Xbox on November 10, where they’ll be announcing more games on the Xbox Games Pass at XO18, which will be livestreamed from Mexico City during the fourth annual Xbox FanFest.

The Xbox Games Pass gives players free access to a massive catalog of games for one monthly price, including Xbox One exclusives the day of their release. With the announcement of more to come, it’ll be interesting to see what Microsoft continues to add to the burgeoning roster.
