Microsoft has announced the Xbox Game Pass titles for March and it’s a bumper month. The headline additions are Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Cyberpunk 2077, Hollow Knight: Silksong (for Game Pass Ultimate) and Planet of Lana 2.
Could this overly generous crop have anything to do with the recent Xbox leadership reshuffle, I wonder? Regardless, March on Xbox Game Pass goes as follows:

There are also some in-game Call of Duty: Warzone bits and bobs coming free for Game Pass members on 13th March.
Leaving Xbox Game Pass on 15th March is the wonderfully named He is Coming, alongside Mythwrecked, Enter the Gungeon, and a couple of others I don’t think you’ll miss.
As mentioned above, Xbox had a major leadership reshuffle at the end of February, which saw long-time leader Phil Spencer retire and his deputy Sarah Bond also suddenly depart. In their place came Asha Sharma, heralding from Microsoft’s CoreAI division, who has promised to reverse Xbox’s fortunes. But her lack of personal gaming experience and corporate gaming experience has made people sceptical. Game Pass, of course, is one of the initiatives she’ll have to deal with. Her message for the time being has been to watch and learn, before making any major future-facing decisions.
