Our selected games feature a beloved JRPG, a delightful indie journey, and a brilliant puzzler scheduled to depart from the platform shortly.

Persona 4: The Golden Edition

Among the best ways to get your money's worth from your subscription is by immersing yourself in a lengthy, captivating RPG — and Persona 4 Golden matches that description exactly. You step into the role of a teenager who has relocated to the sleepy rural town of Inaba. During the day, your goals involve forming friendships, taking on employment, and keeping up with studies. At night, you work to solve a disturbing string of murders by venturing into unique dungeons themed around your friends' deepest insecurities.

With a unforgettable cast of characters, strategic battle system, flawless art design, and a plot packed with surprises, Persona 4: The Golden Edition is considered a classic for good reason. It also features a incredibly engrossing cycle that will have you playing late into the night, repeatedly.

Sopa - Tale of the Stolen Potato

Although big titles like Ninja Gaiden 4 are a primary selling point for the service, the subscription also highlights lesser-known games. A perfect example of this is Sopa: Tale of the Stolen Potato. Inspired by Spirited Away, this charming indie game is a fantasy tale steeped in Latin American culture. Players join Miho, who, after helping his grandma prepare soup, is pulled into a colorful world populated by potato-stealing frogs and various eccentric creatures.

Sopa: Tale of the Stolen Potato unfolds like an learning-focused computer title from the 1990s, as Miho tackles challenges and aids the world's residents by gathering an inventory of objects. Though it's a bit rough around the edges, Sopa is a sweet small game that openly celebrates its appreciation for South America.

Cocoon: A Puzzle Adventure

Cocoon is scheduled to leave Game Pass on October 15, leaving only a short time to experience it via subscription — and you definitely must. Developer the creators designed one of the finest puzzle games of recent years in 2023's Cocoon. Its central puzzle mechanic revolves around moving between worlds within other dimensions, and frequently you'll carry those worlds, in the form of colorful spheres, alongside you.

Although it doesn't have explicit guidance, everything about Cocoon: A Puzzle Adventure's challenges is designed in a highly natural manner, though they will challenge you as well. 2023 was a massive period for games, so it's no surprise if Cocoon: A Puzzle Adventure was a bit overlooked by many players. Let's correct that now.
