Editor’s Picks – Best PC Game Pass games right now
Vampire Crawlers (New to Game Pass)
This is a nice take of rogue-like dungeon crawling from the creators of Vampire Survivors. It’s a deckbuilder by heart and you dungeon crawl through various biomes upgrading your deck and simply seeing if the decisions you make along the way can make you reach the end of each run. It’s challenging, addicting, and understands the beauty of deckbuilding roguelikes.
Hades 2
Speaking of roguelikes, this is probably the best one out there today. Supergiant Games’ latest title has left Steam’s early access program and is available in most platforms, including Game Pass. This is an amazing action game that keeps on giving despite the losses and successes. You keep going through the same gauntlet, same bosses, but is given a variety of ways to tackling each one, with a narrative and progress feels like it’s moving forward at a steady pace. It’s a no-brainer and is worth a download.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
A story-driven, open world, action RPG that continues the story of Henry in 15th-century Medieval Europe. It’s the perfect game to immerse yourself in medieval times as combat is grounded and methodical, and the choices you make have a solid impact in each of the stories you encounter when exploring the world. It will suck you in, because if you’re not careful, you’ll see yourself spending over 100 hours on the game with no stopping in sight.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33: The talk of the town for most of 2025. Yes, this was released day one in Game Pass and if you love turn-based RPGs, this is a must-try. This is easily my current Game of the Year pick for 2025, and quite honestly it found a place in my all-time list. This will shock you in many ways that by the end of it you’ll fully understand why it won Game of the Year in the 2025 Game Awards.

Frostpunk 1 & 2: This survival city-builder series still lives rent-free on my hard drive. Frostpunk combines strategy and storytelling with brutally cold stakes. The sequel expands everything the first game introduced, making it the perfect pair for strategy fans.

Aliens: Dark Descent: Think real-time XCOM, but set in the Alien universe. Dark Descent puts you in command of a Marine squad tasked with clearing Xeno-infested areas as they find ways to leave the planet they are stranded in. When you’re spotted, it’s time to set turrets, fortify positions, and survive the onslaught. A tense, smart strategy game worth your attention.
-
Cities: Skylines 2: probably one of the best city-sims out there today. Build complex city layouts or just create a more familiar area as you slowly handle issues that naturally occur as your city grows. The sequel delivers the same city builder but with a more challenging economy and better tools to make unique city designs.
-
StarCraft 2 Campaign Collection: Real-time strategy games may be rare these days, but StarCraft 2 remains a gold standard. With all three campaigns (Terran, Zerg, and Protoss) now on PC Game Pass thanks to Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision, it’s the perfect time to dive into this genre classic.

Is PC Game Pass worth it in the Philippines?
At PHP 225, that’s PHP 2,700 a year, a price tag that could equate to owning one new title at full price. If you see yourself playing multiple games each month, the price tag can easily be justified, but if you see yourself playing one game and barely exploring others, you might want to reconsider the subscription.
The library skews heavily toward Xbox first-party titles (Bethesda, Obsidian, Double Fine) and rotating third-party additions. Day-one releases for Xbox Game Studios titles are still part of the deal, which is where the real value is.
It’s not for everyone as you have to ask yourself if you’re a player that’s open to exploring different kinds of games. We do live in a world where there are players that play only one game for years. If you stick to one game for months at a time or prefer owning your library, Steam is probably still your home. But if you like variety and want to try games before committing, PC Game Pass might be worth it for you.
