Xbox Game Pass: 10 Best Bethesda Games

10. Rage 2

From developers involved in the underrated Mad Max (2015), Rage 2 transplants some of that DNA to a new and unique sci-fi setting. Though, it must be said, that is 'new' in the sense that they revamped and reenergised the somewhat squandered potential in the original Rage.

You play Walker (not the Texas Ranger, though rather the last Ranger of Vineland), who fights for survival in the rough and tumble, and admittedly eccentric, world emerging from an apocalyptic event; namely, an asteroid colliding with the planet.

Though predominantly a first person shooter, there are progression elements akin to RPGs at play here, as well as vehicular combat (al la the aforementioned Mad Max). That said, shooting takes the focus and rightfully so: the combat is fluid, fast-paced, and satisfying though and through.

Indeed, the mechanics are where Rage 2 shines, sustaining your engagement despite a few narrative shortcomings (literally in the case of its length). Rage 2 is an excellent title for Game Pass, letting you enjoy what it does well, indeed very well, without feeling disappointed.
