Game Pass has revealed its roster of complimentary games for the first half of August 2023. Let us see the games, which will be available for console, PC and Ultimate subscribers.

Effective from August 3, A Short Hike (cloud, console, PC) has joined the service. The game centers around an anthropomorphic bird's quest to scale a national park summit. Along the journey, players encounter vibrant characters, discover various items, and engage in mini-games. A Short Hike secured top honors at the Independent Games Festival Awards 2020.

Celeste (cloud, console, PC) has also been incorporated this month. Celebrated for its flexible difficulty settings, this 2D platformer lets players tailor the challenge to their preference. Additionally, Celeste explores mental health struggles, stars a transgender protagonist, and was developed by a transgender creator.

Broforce Forever (cloud, console, PC) will be accessible through Game Pass starting August 8. This side-scrolling action game humorously parodies '80s muscular characters. The game version includes added characters and more demanding levels.

On the following day, the atmospheric indie classic Limbo (cloud, console, PC) arrives. Shortly after, city building and management simulation Airborne Kingdom (cloud, console, PC) will become available. While Everspace 2, a swift-paced space loot shooter, is already on PC, Xbox Series console and cloud users can anticipate its debut on August 15.
