Microsoft has brought its subscription service, the Xbox Game Pass, to PC. It's currently in open beta, meaning you can get access to more than 100 PC games for $5 a month at an introductory price (and as part of the beta promotion, you can try your first month for $1). It's a lot of games for not a lot of money, including Microsoft's first-party games the day they're released.
Since E3, Microsoft has been injecting new games into the service. At the time of this writing there are 153 games, many of which were released in the past few years.
Here's the full list of Game Pass PC games available right now, beginning with games coming in 2020 and later this year, followed by the list of currently available Game Pass games.
