Scarlet Nexus and More Japanese Games Come to Xbox Game Pass

The marquee title is Scarlet Nexus, Bandai Namco’s first big new generation title from earlier this year.

Alongside Scarlet Nexus, which we reviewed and (I) enjoyed quite a bit, Microsoft also added Playism’s Mighty Goose (another title we reviewed) and AI: The Somnium Files from Spike Chunsoft.

All three of these games are Xbox Play Anywhere titles, meaning your save data will travel with you no matter what platform you’re on.
