Ninja Gaiden 4, Keeper, Ball x Pit lead the next Game Pass news

For the first time since announcing the renewal and price increase of Xbox Game Pass, Microsoft announces the games that will soon be added to the subscription service. If anyone was expecting a surprise, they will be disappointed. The big additions are the well-known ones, while on the starting ramp are Cocoon (which is one of the PS Plus games of October), Core Keeper and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutants Unleashed.

The new wave of games for Game Pass is led by Ninja Gaiden 4, the new installment of a franchise that for the last few generations has been closely linked to Xbox consoles. This time the spotlight falls on Yakumo, a young ninja from the Raven Clan who sets out on a mission to save Tokyo from demons using Ninjutsu Bloodbind, a technique that allows him to manipulate the blood of his enemies. Veteran Ryu Hayabusa will appear throughout the campaign as a secondary but playable character.

The second title that we highlight comes from Double Fine Productions, and that means that it will not leave anyone indifferent. After Psychonauts 2, the team founded by Tim Schafer approaches us with Keeper, a project led by Lee Petty that takes the form of a supernatural puzzle adventure. Its protagonists are a walking lighthouse whose light affects the world around it and Twig, a seabird capable of interacting with the mysterious mechanisms that exist in this post-human world. Keeper will explain his story to us without words.

Finally a mention for Ball x Pit, a roguelike of survival whose demo has left very good impressions. This title is set in a fantasy world where players have the goal of building a new Bolabilonia as they search a gigantic moat, which is all that remains of the once majestic and rich city.
