New game exclusive to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on December 8: ‘Against the Storm’. This city-building game, which attracted great attention in early access on Steam, will offer a unique experience for PC players.
This Friday, Game Pass Ultimate owners will have access to Against the Storm, a new game they can play on their PC. As the ultimate subscription service, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate offers users great value for money. This service includes cloud gaming and all games in the standard Game Pass library, along with access to PC Game Pass content and Xbox Live.
Microsoft announced that a new game will be added for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers on December 8.
PC Game Pass is part of Xbox Game Pass for PC games. Although Standard Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass mostly have similar content, some games may only be available in one of them. So for both PC and Xbox owners, Ultimate offers an excellent value proposition. Against the Storm, a City Builder game, will only be available on PC Game Pass.
Against the Storm launched in Early Access on Steam in November 2022 and quickly gained popularity. After thousands of positive reviews, its Steam score rose to “Overwhelmingly Positive”. This will be a major win for PC Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate when early access ends on December 8th. Criticisms of the game are generally positive and its city-building mechanics are appreciated.
Against the Storm tasks players with rebuilding civilization. As players build and manage cities, they add roguelite elements that will make their future work easier. These elements increase the replayability of the game, and for city-building fans, this unique fantasy setting is noteworthy. It will soon be available via PC Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
There are two Xbox Game Pass games confirmed for December 2023 so far: Against the Storm and SteamWorld Build, which will be available on December 1. SteamWorld Build will only be available to console Game Pass owners, while Against the Storm will only be playable on PC.
