Microsoft has announced the next set of additions to the Xbox Game Pass library, and there are nine games on the way in the first half of June. The list of titles includes games new to Game Pass and games joining different tiers.

The new additions for June include the day-one new releases Solarpunk (June 8), Starseeker: Astroneer Expeditions (June 11), and Junkster (June 16).

Also in June, the adventure game from the publisher of Firewatch, Herdling, comes to Game Pass Premium on June 4, joining Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. Total Chaos, the first-person survival-horror game, also comes to Game Pass Premium on June 4; it was already on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass.

The boxing game Undisputed comes to Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass Premium, and PC Game Pass on June 8, while the turn-based RPG Personal 5 Royal lands on Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass Premium, and PC Game Pass on June 9.

The life sim Beastro hits Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass on June 11, while the co-op puzzle-platformer Frog Sqwad comes to Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass on June 11.

In terms of games leaving Game Pass in June, Microsoft will cut five games from the service on June 15, including Jurassic World Evolution 2.

Microsoft is expected to announce a second wave of additions and removals for Game Pass in June later this month. There may also be some Game Pass surprises during the Xbox Games Showcase on June 7.

Jurassic World Evolution 2 Jurassic World Evolution 2

Welcome to Jurassic World Evolution 2--but not for much longer. The sequel to the original 2018 game introduced some significant improvements, but you don't have too much time to check them out for yourself before it exits Game Pass for cloud, console, and PC.

Lost in Random: The Eternal Die Lost in Random: The Eternal Die

Feeling lucky? Lost in Random combines fairy tale and gothic influences to create a stylish adventure, and with everyone's fate determined by a roll of the dice, you'll have to work hard to keep the odds in your favor. Originally released for Game Pass on cloud, console, and PC, it's one of the five games leaving in mid-June.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game

A love letter to 2D beat-'em-ups, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game is exiting Game Pass for cloud, console, and PC this month. Grab it while you can, enjoy the excellent Anamanaguchi website, and defeat the League of Ramona Flowers' Evil Exes. Last year also saw the release of Scott Pilgrim EX, and it's a fine follow-up to this cult-classic brawler.

Warhammer 40K Space Marine: Master Crafted Edition Warhammer 40K Space Marine: Master Crafted Edition

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge

We've seen several Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle games released over the last couple of years, but Shredder's Revenge is still one of our favorites. A combination of coin-munching arcade aesthetics with classic beat-'em-up action enhanced with several modern ideas, it'll exit Game Pass for cloud, console, and PC.

Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog have confirmed that Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, the upcoming remake of the 1996 game, was made in part with AI tools.

The game's product page on Steam contains a disclosure about the use of AI, and it says the developers used "AI-assisted tools" to support "some early exploration and temporary development content."

"Any AI-assisted assets were either replaced or refined by humans in order to maintain the creative and artistic vision of the development team," the disclosure states.

One of the newly released images for Legacy of Atlantis shows Lara dual-wielding pistols, while two more pistols remain holstered. People online said this was odd and possibly related to AI. That remains to be seen, however.

In another newly released image, we can see Lara wielding two pistols and the holsters are empty.

The use of artificial intelligence tools in game development has increased, as developers look to find ways to make games more efficiently to help combat rising development costs.

The use of AI has not been without controversy, of course, as people continue to fear that the use of the technology will negatively affect the business of games and the people who make them, and further enrich executives.

Crystal Dynamics, Flying Wild Hog, and the Tomb Raider franchise are owned by Embracer, a behemoth holding company whose CEO is a big believer in AI for helping to increase profits.

Following a delay, Legacy of Atlantis is now releasing in February 2027. It will be followed later in the year by a brand-new Tomb Raider game, Tomb Raider: Catalyst.

Marvel's Wolverine finally got its big gameplay reveal during Sony's latest State of Play showcase, alongside first looks at a variety of new characters from the wider X-Men universe. With mutants being rounded up by Trask Industries and other factions, it begs the question: where are the other X-Men? It turns out, they don't exist in this version of Wolverine's universe.

That's according to creative director Marcus Smith, who confirmed that the mutant-defending team would not feature in Insomniac's Wolverine. Instead, the game will feature Team X, which is described as a globe-trotting group of mercenary mutants who are protecting other mutants in danger. In this universe, most mutants are still living in secret, so the idea of Professor Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters seems a while away.

"In our world, mutants aren’t really that well known throughout the world, so they’re mostly in hiding because they’re pretty vulnerable," Smith explained to Variety. "In our trailer that we set up, Logan is hunting down some mutants who’ve been kidnapped by cybernetically enhanced mercenaries called the Reavers, and that’s when he discovers there’s yet another mutant who is also trying to save them, and that’s where he and Jean cross paths."

That would explain why Logan doesn't seem to recognize Jean Grey in the trailer, but might also give some hints as to why other characters also appear. Mystique is seen fighting Reavers near the end of the trailer, suggesting that she might be another member of Team X. While Omega Red and Sabretooth have also been associated with the group in the past, it's clear here that they're villains you'll have to deal with as Wolverine, and likely not aligned with saving other mutants.

One associate of Team X in the comics has been Lady Deathstrike, who has not featured in a trailer yet. She has also lead the Reavers in the past, who are pominently featured (and torn up) in this latest gameplay trailer. So it's possible Insomniac could be reserving her introduction as a surprise later down the line.

There are many Marvel characters that are making an appearance in Wolverine, in large and small roles alike. Check out our list of everyone you might have missed from the latest trailer before Wolverine launches exclusively on PS5 on September 15.
