Twelve more games are coming to Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass service in May, adding to the five games that joined the service earlier this month. Little Kitty, Big City, meet the best puzzle game of 2023, Chants of Sennaar.
Chants of Sennaar, the award-winning language puzzle game, lands May 16 but is far from the only major game coming to the service that day. Microsoft will also add Immortals of Aveum (a magic-based first-person shooter) and cloud gaming access for NHL 24.
Later in the month, expect a day-one release of Ninja Theory’s Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, but you won’t want to miss Immortals of Aveum or Chants of Sennaar either. As for NHL 24, console gamers got access in April, but it’ll be available via cloud gaming now, too.
