Microsoft has revealed the second wave of Xbox Game Pass titles for September.

  • Wargroove 2 (Cloud, Console, and PC)
  • Frostpunk 2 (PC)
  • Ara: History Untold (PC)

Wargroove 2 will be available via Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass on 19th September.

Frostpunk 2 will then join Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass the following day, on 20th September. This is a day one release for Game Pass members, and one many of us here at Eurogamer are particularly excited about.

Our Bertie took a look at how it was coming along towards the end of last year. Weather is no longer the primary threat in Frostpunk 2, he wrote in October. Now, it’s people.

“You’ll spend your time preoccupied by a storm of a different kind,” Bertie wrote. “A people-shaped storm, a societal storm. And if you fail to manage that properly, it will end you.”

Alternate history strategy title Ara: History Untold will then make its Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass debut on 24th September. This is another day one release for PC players, and can be pre-installed today.

“Ara: History Untold is an evolution in historical grand strategy, featuring beloved classic PC strategy mechanics alongside innovative gameplay,” reads the official blurb. “Build a nation and lead your people throughout history as you explore new lands, develop arts and culture, conduct diplomacy, and go head-to-head with your rivals to prove you are the greatest ruler ever known.

“It’s your world now.”

In addition to the above, Game Pass members can save 10 percent on Starfield’s Shattered Space DLC.
