Xbox Game Pass Adds Stylish Action Game With 'Very Positive' Reviews
Xbox Game Pass has added No More Heroes 3 to its ever-expanding content library. This is the sixth title to reach Microsoft's subscription service in March 2024 and the 33rd overall addition to Xbox Game Pass since the turn of the year.
No More Heroes is a series of wacky hack-and-slash action adventures starring Travis Touchdown, a stereotypical otaku who gets involved in an international assassin organization after acquiring a futuristic katana. Developed by Japanese studio Grasshopper Manufacture, the franchise started in 2007 with a highly regarded Wii exclusive of the same name that spawned five more titles, including three spin-offs. Following a decade-long hiatus, the mainline series returned in 2021 with the critically acclaimed No More Heroes 3, whose Xbox version has a 77 Metascore on Metacritic, whereas its PC port boasts hundreds of «Very Positive» reviews.
Regularly priced at $39.99, No More Heroes 3 is now available to Xbox Game Pass users at no extra cost as part of their monthly subscription. As is commonly the case with new additions to Microsoft's content library, Xbox Game Pass members only get to play the base edition of Grasshopper's humorous action game. But this version is already content-complete, as the $49.99 Digital Deluxe Edition merely comes with some extra miscellaneous goodies in the form of an artbook and soundtrack combo.
No More Heroes 3 is the fourth addition to Microsoft's subscription library in just as many days, having reached Xbox Game Pass immediately after Control: Ultimate Edition. The XGP catalog has also expanded to include NBA 2K24 and SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated, in that order, since the start of the week.
At least four more titles are scheduled to reach the service before this month comes to a close, with that group comprising an early access version of Lightyear Frontier, as well as MLB The Show 24, Diablo 4, and Open Roads. Aside from Diablo 4, all of those remaining March 2024 additions
