Xbox Game Passadds a new day-one first-party title inMinecraft Legendstoday, while also revealing the rest of its “wave 2” of titles for the month. Aside from reaffirming titles and confirming some a date, this amounts to two more games added to theXbox Game PassApril 2023 line-up.
Of course,Minecraft Legendsis a big get for Xbox Game Passwhen it drops at 12 ET on April 18. It’s the second first-party title to be added this month, followingGhostwire: Tokyo, and in a few weeks it’ll be followed up byRedfallon May 2. Getting day-one first-party titles on the service is a big deal for fans and for Microsoft, so getting three (more or less) within a month is stellar for the service. InMinecraft Legends, fans must engage with action strategy elements to save the Overworld from aninvasion of Piglins.
