2023’s best horror game comes to Game Pass, but we lose an amazing RPG

pcgamesn.com:

One of my favorite games of the year and a truly standout horror experience is about to join PC Game Pass, as 2023’s Dead Space Remake is headed to the Microsoft subscription service. There’s a lot more coming in the spooky month of October, but we’re also losing some truly great games, with Persona 5 Royal chief among them.

By all accounts, 2023 has been an excellent year for remakes of iconic horror games, and the genre in general. My absolute favorite has been the Dead Space Remake, which we at PCGamesN gave a 9/10 in our Dead Space Remake review. Calling it a superb glow-up that fully embraces what made the 2008 original so special to begin with.

Lucky for us then, Dead Space is coming to Game Pass via EA Play, which you already have access to if you’re a PC Game Pass or Game Pass Ultimate subscriber. If you’re yet to play Dead Space, strap on some headphones and turn down the lights because this is an experience you’ll want to be in full spooky mode for.

Dead Space Remake isn’t the only thing coming to Game Pass in the next few weeks, as there’s a slew of great releases for the subscription service, courtesy of an announcement from Microsoft.

Sadly some great games are leaving the service at the end of October too, as on the 31st these are the games you’ll no longer get to play.

While Dead Space is a truly excellent addition to Game Pass, we’re losing out on the sci-fi Resident Evil-like Signalis, which channels the classic Capcom formula into something horrifying, mind-bending, and totally new. It’s also fairly short (unlike the next game I’m about to mention), so it’s well worth getting on it in the next couple of weeks.

On an ever sadder note, we’re losing Persona 5 Royal on Game Pass at the same time. This
