Microsoft has confirmed the next batch of titles to join Xbox Game Pass this month, including the excellent Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night.

While some of the Xbox Game Pass February 2024 games leaked earlier today, Microsoft was able to sneak a few surprises in for the official announcement. Xbox Game Pass subscribers can look forward to eight games releasing onto the subscription between now and Tuesday, February 20, including Resident Evil 3, and Madden NFL 24. Returning to Xbox Game Pass this month is the excellent Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night which is a critically acclaimed Metroidvania created by Castlevania: Symphony of the Night producer Koji Igarashi.

It's worth noting that the title for the Xbox Wire post announcing this month's Xbox Game Pass lineup mentions Bandai Namco's critically acclaimed RPG, 2021's Tales of Arise which is not included in the list of titles coming this month. Whether this means it was meant to be a part of the lineup and now isn't available, or it is simply coming later this month in the second batch of Xbox Game Pass February 2024 titles.

Bear in mind this is only the first batch of titles for Xbox Game Pass in February 2024, there's typically two drops each month, and we'd expect the next announcement to happen around February 20 when the last announced game launches.
