Three Games Hit Xbox Game Pass May 12, Two Day-One Releases

Microsoft is adding three titles to Xbox Game Pass on May 12. Black Jacket and Call of the Elder Gods are available at launch for Game Pass Ultimate and PC subscribers across Series X|S, PC and cloud. Elite Dangerous is joining Game Pass for Ultimate and Premium members on console and via cloud streaming.

Black Jacket is a rogue-lite deckbuilder with a blackjack theme. Microsoft’s description says players must “gamble your way out of hell” by building card combos, using cheats and collecting Soul coins. The title is available on Series X|S, PC and cloud for Ultimate and PC tiers.

Call of the Elder Gods is a narrative puzzle adventure and a sequel to Call of the Sea (2020). The game sends players to remote locations to investigate supernatural events and solve puzzles tied to a larger mystery. It is available on launch day for Game Pass Ultimate and PC subscribers on Series X|S, PC and cloud.

Elite Dangerous is a long-running space simulation franchise that recreates the Milky Way at large scale and supports multiplayer, open-world exploration and an evolving narrative. The game is being added to Game Pass on console and cloud for Ultimate and Premium members, allowing subscribers to play without a separate purchase.

All three titles go live on May 12 and appear across different Game Pass tiers and platforms: Ultimate and PC for the two day-one releases, and Ultimate and Premium for the space sim on console and cloud. Microsoft’s Game Pass library continues to include both new launch-day releases and established games across its subscription levels.
