Co-op Gem Lands on Xbox Game Pass, Earns Rave Reviews

Xbox Game Pass welcomes Robin Hood - Sherwood Builders! Subscribers can now enjoy this cooperative base-building game at no extra cost. This marks the 14th addition to the Xbox Game Pass lineup in June 2024, joining popular titles like Octopath Traveler, The Callisto Protocol, My Time at Sandrock, and EA Sports FC 24.

Set in the world of the legendary English outlaw, Robin Hood - Sherwood Builders is an action-adventure RPG. Players take on the role of Robin Hood, engaging in combat, hunting, crafting, and even a bit of thievery to help the people of Sherwood Forest survive the Sheriff of Nottingham's oppressive rule. The game's core mechanic involves expanding a small forest camp into a thriving village, populated by villagers with various professions and tasks, from skilled artisans to hunters and guards. Already boasting hundreds of positive Steam reviews, Robin Hood - Sherwood Builders is a welcome addition to the Xbox Game Pass RPG collection.

Four months after its initial launch, Robin Hood - Sherwood Builders is now available on Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft's subscribers can access the game immediately and embark on their Sherwood Forest adventure, recruiting companions and challenging the Sheriff of Nottingham. For those without an active subscription, Microsoft offers a special introductory offer: Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass are available for just $1 for the first two weeks, reverting to the standard $16.99 monthly fee afterward.

Xbox Game Pass June 2024 Additions:

Since its 2017 launch, Xbox Game Pass has become a haven for diverse gaming experiences. The subscription service offers a rotating catalog of games for a monthly fee, encompassing both first-party Microsoft titles (available on release day) and a selection of third-party games. Popular current titles include Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Dead Space, and The Quarry, to name a few.

Robin Hood - Sherwood Builders is the fourteenth game to join the service in June. Looking ahead, Microsoft has already confirmed six day-one releases for July 2024, including the souls-like title Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn (July 18th), Capcom's action-strategy game Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, and the highly anticipated Frostpunk 2 (July 25th). Further July additions are expected to be announced soon.
