While Microsoft is set to bring five new games to Game Pass before October 15, it will also remove five titles from the service. Midway through the month, three sci-fi games will depart: Dyson Sphere Program, Everspace 2, and From Space. Fans of F1 Manager 2023 might feel the sting of its removal the most, as it remains uncertain if or when a new version will become available. If you're looking for a unique horror journey at the beginning of October, Scorn could be worth checking out. As long as these games are still playable, members can enjoy a 20 percent discount on purchases.
Dyson Sphere Program Overview
Dyson Sphere Program is a sci-fi construction game where players assume the role of an engineer on a mission to create a sprawling space empire. Gamers can automate production lines, establish interplanetary transport systems, and enhance resource management. A key objective in the game is to construct a Dyson Sphere, a colossal structure that envelops a star to harness its energy.
What Everspace 2 Offers
In contrast to the first game, Everspace 2 moves away from its roguelike origins and delivers a more open-world action adventure blended with RPG elements. The storyline continues from its predecessor, placing players in the shoes of a new clone pilot, Adam Roslin. Everspace 2 boasts a vast world filled with planets, asteroid fields, and space stations. As players navigate through quests and collect resources, they will also engage in technology research and weapon upgrades. Intense space battles further elevate the thrill of the game.
Exploring From Space
This top-down shooter is set in a post-apocalyptic realm overrun by pink aliens. Players can select from five distinct classes and team up with up to three others to combat the alien threat. Each class possesses unique abilities and weapons that encourage strategic collaboration. In From Space, players must work together to achieve mission goals, gather resources, and repel the relentless alien forces. As you progress through missions, you enhance your gear and skills to better counter the invasion.
F1 Manager 2023 allows players to manage a Formula 1 team, making crucial decisions as a team manager. From selecting racing strategies to overseeing drivers and vehicle development, players must juggle short-term choices during races with long-term planning for vehicle upgrades and budgets. The removal of F1 Manager 2023 from Game Pass is expected to be a significant blow for its fans, especially since F1 Manager 2024 is not yet accessible on Microsoft's platform.
The Unique World of Scorn
Scorn is a first-person horror experience set in a disturbing universe inspired by the artistic styles of H.R. Giger and Zdzisław Beksiński, known for their surreal creations. Players navigate through an organic-mechanical landscape, tackling intricate puzzles and interacting with strange machinery. Occasional confrontations with grotesque beings compel players to strategize carefully, as resources are often limited. The game emphasizes a chilling atmosphere, minimal dialogue, and a subtle narrative approach that enhances its unsettling vibe.
