Two great games come to Game Pass today and both are day-one brand new releases. Let’s dive right in and check them out.

The first of them is Pentiment, which is getting high critical praise and currently has a review score of 86 on Metacritic.

Obsidian Entertainment’s narrative adventure game is available for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC Steam, and Windows 10 and 11. Set in 16th century Bavaria, Pentiment tasks players “to investigate and uncover the mysteries and scandals that lie in this quaint town, all while working toward saving the life of their close friend.”

\
Somerville
\
Also releasing today as another day-one Game Pass game, Somerville is a gorgeous sci-fi action-adventure platformer. Described as a “brief but beautiful sci-fi survival story” by one reviewer, Somerville apparently has made quite an impression on someone, for developer Jumpship has just announced that it has been acquired by Swedish company Thunderful Group.
