Time to play Hades on Xbox Game Pass an appetizer for Hades 2
This next batch of Xbox Game Pass titles is a solid line-up to close out September.
We have Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, a title we gave a glowing 4-Star review to for its well-executed single-player campaign, satisfying gunplay, wide variety of old and new multiplayer maps, and entertaining Modern Warfare Zombies mode.
Then there’s Visions of Mana, a charming action-RPG that has helped Square Enix’s colorful Mana franchise gain mainstream popularity for its action-packed gameplay and fantastical world.
Finally, we have Hades, one of the most critically acclaimed action-RPG roguelites in recent memory. This game won accolades for its unique take on Greek mythology, addictive combat system, endless replay value thanks to its roguelite elements, and its brutally challenging boss fights.
With its sequel, Hades 2, leaving early access soon as it approaches its September 25, 2025, release date, Hades 1 coming to Xbox Game Pass a few days prior makes it the perfect time for longtime fans to start another playthrough or new fans to experience it for the first time.
I’m of the latter, as I never played the original Hades when it first came out in 2020 due to my life being completely taken over by Monster Hunter World at the time.
Now that it’s coming to Xbox Game Pass, PC Game Pass, and Xbox Cloud Gaming, it’s time for me to see what I missed out on when Hades joins Microsoft’s vaunted subscription service on September 19, 2025.
