Quick Summary

The latest games coming to Xbox Game Pass have been revealed, with FBC: Firebreak being added from today.

We'll also soon be getting a trio of classic RTS games in the form of remastered versions of the Warcraft trilogy, although those are for PC Game Pass members only.

Microsoft has announced a whole stack of new games coming to Xbox Game Pass, with several of them available from today, 17 June.

One of the day one releases you can play right now is FBC: Firebreak – a co-op sci-fi shooter from Remedy Entertainment that's set in the world of Control and Alan Wake.

Like those games, it's a bit weird with you taking on the role of an operative sent into the "Oldest House", the HQ of the Federal Bureau of Control, to restore order as different dimensions seemingly collide.

You can play along with up to two buddies online, and the whole thing looks quite unlike any other multiplayer shooter you might encounter.

Two more games will be added to Xbox Game Pass Standard from tomorrow, 18 June: Star Trucker, and Wildfrost. They are already available on Ultimate.
