What's up everybody welcome to I.G.N. Game Soup on my host Damon Hadfield joining me this week is Justin Davis and Sam Clayborn aim coupe it is a yes aim

coupe it is a scoop trio this week very busy day in the office lots of people are sick lots of people are out at events playing games heads down working on features

So we have a little bit smaller group, but no less great a show for you this week. We're gonna talk about got a war just I just got a war

We got have you used that one before?

I thought that earlier today. Okay. All right. We're gonna talk about Cuphead and other difficult games notoriously difficult games, but first

Xbox Game Pass is it the future is it the future of video games something it is Microsoft has unveiled that all

Microsoft Studios games going forward will be a part of Xbox Game Pass on release day Xbox Game Pass is of course

Microsoft's Netflix like subscription service which offers access to a selection of Xbox one and 360 games for a monthly fee

I think it's $10 a month and

This starts with Sea of Thieves which is out March 20th. There's a close beta going on now

Sea of Thieves is a $60 game. So and then it ends with that is what else is coming up well, okay

But there's also another there's a hundred games in Xbox yep game pass but the new news is that there's just new

Every new Microsoft game every new Microsoft Studios game will be a part of Xbox Game Pass on release day seems like a pretty good value

$10 a month would get you access to

Sea of Thieves and then this other hundred games you self to pay games with cold well, I mean you self to pay off our Xbox live cold

You have to or if you want to play on yeah, if you want to plan on yeah, for sure

Sea of Thieves for instance for see it see it. Yeah, which a big online. Yeah, so I mean for them

It's like all great because they get the money for these games without going to retail and they get

Probably Xbox live subscriptions, which is a year they get all that and that's all good for them

It's really scary for retailers scary for retailers. I want to scare for single player games or single player games

You're making so we've been talking about the $60 single player game and that was the whole topic of scoop, you know two three weeks ago

Um, and if if you release a six-year-old game that's on Xbox Game Pass wouldn't people surely rather than just pay
