🔗 Share this article Three Xbox Game Pass Games We Are Playing This Weekend (Oct. 10-12) After the company's recent news of Game Pass membership changes, including a price increase for the top tier to $30 monthly, many subscribers are looking for fresh methods to maximize their membership. If you keeping their subscription or considering joining, we present our latest recommendations. This weekend's titles feature a beloved Japanese role-playing game, a charming independent journey, and a superb puzzle game set to depart from the platform soon. Persona 4: The Golden Edition Among the top ways to get your money's worth from Game Pass is by immersing yourself in a lengthy, engaging RPG — and Persona 4 Golden matches that bill exactly. You step into the role of a teenager who has just moved to the sleepy rural town of Inaba. By day, your objectives involve forming friendships, working part-time jobs, and managing studies. At night, you work to solve a chilling serial murder case by exploring unique dungeons based on your companions' inner fears. With a memorable group of heroes, tactical turn-based combat, impeccable art design, and a storyline packed with twists, Persona 4: The Golden Edition is regarded as a classic for good reason. It also boasts a highly addictive cycle that will have you playing past bedtime, night after night. Sopa - Tale of the Stolen Potato While big releases like Ninja Gaiden 4 are a key attraction for Game Pass, the subscription also showcases smaller indie gems. A great example of this is Sopa - Tale of the Stolen Potato. Drawing from the animated classic, this enchanting independent game is a magical realist journey rooted in Latin American culture. You follow Miho, who, after helping his grandma make soup, is pulled into a vibrant realm filled with potato-nabbing frogs and other quirky animals. Sopa unfolds similar to an educational computer title from the 1990s, as Miho solves puzzles and helps the realm's inhabitants by collecting an assortment of objects. Even if it's a bit rough around the edges, Sopa: Tale of the Stolen Potato is a heartwarming little experience that openly celebrates its appreciation for the region's culture. Cocoon Cocoon is scheduled to leave the service on Oct. 15, giving you only a few days to experience it via subscription — and you definitely should. Studio the creators designed one of the best puzzle games of recent years in 2023's Cocoon: A Puzzle Adventure. Its central puzzle mechanic focuses on moving among realms within additional dimensions, and often you'll transport those worlds, in the shape of colorful spheres, alongside you. Although it doesn't have direct instructions, everything about Cocoon's challenges is designed in a very natural manner, though they can challenge you as well. The year 2023 proved a big year for video games, so it's understandable if Cocoon was a bit missed by the masses. Let's rectify that while we can.
