Control Xbox Game Pass

Xbox Game Pass is getting a bunch of new additions this month. If you thought that the well-over 100 game library wasn’t enough, Xbox Game Pass is getting 17 new games added to the service.

Here are the Coming Soon Xbox Game Pass games:

Control (Android & Console) – December 3

After a secretive agency in New York is invaded by an otherworldly threat, you become the Director struggling to regain control. This third-person action adventure game will challenge you to master a combination of supernatural abilities that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Control was originally thought to come to Xbox Game Pass months ago, but that was not to be. Instead, the game’s Xbox Game Pass announcement was a false alarm by Xbox boss Phil Spencer. However, months later, the fantastic third-person adventure is now coming to the subscription service.
