Microsoft
has
announced
what
games
will
be
hitting
Game
Pass
this
month.
It’s
just
three
games
so
far,
but
two
of
them
have
actually
already
been
leaked.

The
headliner
for
this
month
is
the
iconic
marsupial
Crash
Bandicoot,
the
platforming
mascot
from
Activision.
The
Crash
Bandicoot
N.
Sane
Trilogy,
which
collects
the
first
three
games
in
a
gloriously
great
remastered
package,
will
land
on
August
8th
for
subscribers.

A
day
before
that
on
August
7th,
Game
Pass
will
get
Creatures
of
Ava.
This
is
a
day
one
release.

“Let
your
empathy
guide
you
as
you
play
an
exciting
action-adventure,
creature-saver
game”
says
the
blurb
for
Creatures
of
Ava.
“Understand
and
tame
the
creatures
of
Ava
and
let
them
lead
you
through
a
variety
of
ecosystems
–
all
in
the
hopes
of
saving
the
planet
from
a
life-consuming
infection.
“

Finally,
Game
Pass
will
have
to
pay
some
protection
money
when
Mafia:
Definitive
Edition
pulls
up
on
August
13th.
This
is
a
remaster
of
the
original
game
and
absolutely
worth
playing
for
the
story
and
atmosphere.
Hopefully
this
release
means
we
can
also
expect
to
see
the
two
sequels
come
to
Game
Pass
as
well.

Both

Crash
Bandicoot
and

Mafia
were
leaked
ahead
of
time.
eXtas1
successfully
predicted
both,
and
even
got
the
dates
correct.

Mafia
is
still
rumoured
to
be
getting
a
4th
game,
although
no
official
word
has
been
issued.
