Microsoft have announced April’s new arrivals for the Game Pass subscription service, and it includes a cute game about being an alligator, a cute game about gardening, a cute game about fleeing a doomed planet in search of a new home among the stars, and also EA Sports PGA Tour, I guess.
Here’s the full list of games heading to Game Pass on PC in April:
- Superhot: Mind Control Delete – Today, April 2nd
- Lil Gator Game – April 4th
- EA Sports PGA Tour – April 4th
- Botany Manor – April 9th
- Shadow Of The Tomb Raider Definitive Edition – April 11th
- Harold Halibut – April 16th
Of these, I’d pay attention to Lil Gator Game most. I have played and completed A Short Hike three times, and when I badly needed a new game with similarly good vibes, bucolic art and playful environments, Lil Gator Game hit the spot. It’s a relentlessly good time.
I’m guessing Superhot: Mind Control Delete does not have “good vibes”, but I did enjoy bending time and shattering heads in its predecessors. It’s the third entry in the series of first-person shooters where time moves only when you do.
Meanwhile, the following games will leave Game Pass this month:
- Amnesia Collection
- Amnesia: Rebirth
- Back 4 Blood
- Phantom Abyss
- Research And Destroy
- Soma
Bad times for horror-likers. You can find more deets of all of the above over on the Xbox blog.
