Microsoft has unveiled the games that will arrive in February on the Game Pass … and those that leave the offer after long months of availability.

Some arrive, others leave. In a press release shared yesterday, Microsoft reveals the titles expected on what remains of the month of February with the Game Pass subscription. On the program: a big hit, a game tailored for US football fans and a handful of surprises, albeit on a smaller scale.
After a somewhat dull month of January, the Game Pass is therefore picking up some color, especially since no title of primary importance will leave the catalog in this month of February. But anyway, here is the list of content to expect with the Game Pass in the fortnight.
Game Pass: what’s new in February?
First delivery of the list, Madden NFL 23 arrives, from February 9, with Game Pass Ultimate but under the aegis of the associated EA Play offer. Launched in August 2022, the title (equivalent to FIFA across the Atlantic, and for American football) is still the latest addition to the franchise, but will be replaced next summer.
SD Gundam Battle Alliance will also arrive on February 9. This action RPG game is based on the Gundam animated series and was launched at the end of July on almost all consoles. No need to buy it to try it out, it is now available for free with the Game Pass. Perfect to give it a chance at a lower cost.

On February 14, Microsoft will offer us this time Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord. As a reminder, the title combines strategy and action-RPG in a sandbox, all in a fictional medieval universe. It will be completed on February 15 by Cities: Skylines in a remastered version. First released in 2015, this rival management game to Sim City was very well received upon release. If you want to try it, it’s now or never.
From February 16, we will also be able to play the Definitive Edition version of Shadow Warrior 3: an offbeat and definitely atypical first-person shooter. Much more anticipated, despite sometimes rather tempered first impressions from the specialized press, Atomic Heart will be the big Game Pass hit in February. With its utopian atmosphere mixing elements of Bioshock, and an alternative reality with Stalinist accents, the software from the Russian studio Mundfish will clearly have arguments to make on February 21st.

Among the titles that leave the Game Pass: Besiege, CrossfireX, Infernax, Recompile, Skul: The Hero, Slayer, or The Last Kids on Earth. If you haven’t finished exploring them, however, you still have until February 15 to do so.
