Analysis: A solid spooky month
This is a pretty good month for Xbox Game Pass, and if you haven’t yet played Motive’s Dead Space remake, it should absolutely be at the top of your list.In myreview of the Dead Space remake, I wrote that “Motive Studios delivers a remake that isn’t just a faithful adaption of Dead Space for the modern age, but a love letter to the entire franchise. New narrative tweaks, the addition of a talking protagonist, and open exploration across the ship add up to a stellar horror experience.”
As for the games that are leaving, I highly recommend trying Signalis, which is a scary game multiple friends have recommended. You’d also do well to just go ahead and buy Persona 5 Royal, because if you aren’t a significant ways through it already, you’re not going to be finishing it before it exits the service.
