Microsoft has announced the second wave of games for the Xbox Game Pass in July 2024, providing a diverse array of gaming experiences, from indie adventures to AAA titles, across console, cloud, and PC platforms. This selection introduces several notable games and leaves ample space for a potential high-profile addition later in the month, such as anticipated titles from Activision’s catalog.

Key Highlights of the July 2024 Wave 2 Lineup:

1. Journey to the Savage Planet (Available on Cloud, Console, and PC starting July 3): This game invites players to explore an uncharted alien world, offering a mix of exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving in a vibrant and whimsical setting.
