March is a great month for Xbox Game Pass, with multiple day-one drops including 33 Immortals and Atomfall, as well as even more titles coming to Game Pass Standard. Unfortunately, the addition of new games also means some of your favorites will be leaving Game Pass. We’ll have a full list of the titles you should binge while you still can at the end of this story.
For starters, 33 Immortals is available today on both Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. This co-op roguelike teams you up with 32 other players to take on huge monsters and challenging bosses. Fight until you fall, and then permanently upgrade your character for the next run.
This month’s Game Pass additions are particularly divine. Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island comes to the service on March 20, putting you in the shoes of a backpacker shipwrecked on an island. You aren’t alone, though; the Greek gods are all there, but they’ve lost their memories. This cozy title is all about befriending and saving these mythological figures.
Old-school arcade fans can celebrate with The Blizzard Arcade Collection, containing classic games like Blackthorne, The Lost Vikings 1 & 2, Rock N Roll Racing, and RPM Racing. The collection also has fun extras like concept art, interviews, and more.
Another major day-one release, Atomfall takes inspiration from the real-world events of the Windscale nuclear disaster in Northern England. With a lot of Fallout-like vibes, Atomfall has you explore the quarantine zone, fighting irradiated monsters, bartering for supplies, and so much more.
In addition to a slew of new titles joining the library, Game Pass Core is getting Octopath Traveler II and Train Sim World 5 tomorrow. On March 26, the delightful roguelike-meets-monster-taming game Monster Sanctuary joins Game Pass Core, alongside Tunic and Batman: Arkham Knight.
Unfortunately, several fantastic games are leaving Game Pass at the end of the month. These include even more of the Yakuza franchise, as well as Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 and Monster Hunter Rise.

The hook is familiar, your choices matter, people notice, and consequences linger. The difference is scale. This is a fully open world take, with townsfolk on routines who respond to what you do, even when you think no one’s watching. It’s still chasing that mix of heroics, petty crime, and dry British humor, only with modern action RPG muscle.

Nintendo first teased the Talking Flower during a Nintendo Direct showcase last September. The company has now shared more details about the product, and confirmed when it will officially go on sale. Based on the flowers in the Super Mario Bros. Wonder game, the Talking Flower is exactly what its name suggests: a potted flower that speaks around twice per hour, delivering lines like "Sometimes it's nice to space out" or "Bowser and his buds can't get us here, right?"
