EA Sports' last outing with the FIFA license in FIFA 23 leads the way as a handful of new games have been revealed as coming to Microsoft's subscription service throughout the rest of May. Most others included are games you might not know or have heard anything about, but hey, that's what Game Pass is all about, right?
In case you weren't aware, EA announced it would be parting ways with the FIFA brand for reasons that should be pretty obvious, instead re-launching its uber-popular football series as EA Sports FC, which might be both the boldest move ever in the sporting videogame field, and the most ethical.
Here's the full breakdown of the game's coming to Game Pass through the rest of May:
