Microsoft has published the list of games that will be added to the Game Pass catalog in the second half of April and the first days of May.

The main novelty will be Kiln — a fun multiplayer action game about battling clay pots, designed for noisy parties. This is a bright and unconventional game from Double Fine Productions, the creator of mega-conceptual titles, the most famous of which is Psychonauts.

Also noteworthy is the new sci-fi adventure Aphelion from the creators of Life Is Strange and Vampyr, which is being developed in collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA), which consulted Dontnod to ensure that the game situations and environments are as realistic as possible.
