New Xbox Game Pass Game Is a “Top 5 Game of All Time” Say Subscribers

A recently added game to Xbox Game Pass is receiving incredible praise, with some players calling it one of the greatest games ever made and boasting the best story they’ve experienced. This enthusiasm seems justified, given its high scores: 86 on Metacritic, 96% positive reviews on Steam, and a 4.87/5 rating on the PlayStation Store. However, if you prioritize gameplay over narrative, this game might not appeal to you, as it doesn’t offer much in that area. Its strength definitely lies in its storytelling.

So, I just found out about this game called 1000xResist that dropped onto Game Pass. It’s cool that it’s available day one with the subscription, but it’s kinda funny – it’s actually been out on PC since last year! Apparently, it was a bit of a hidden gem in 2024. It’s made by a new studio called Sunset Visitor, and it’s their first game, published by Fellow Traveler. It’s a narrative-driven sci-fi adventure, which sounds right up my alley!

“You Must Play”

A highly popular post on the Xbox Game Pass Reddit page isn’t just positive about the service—it’s overwhelmingly enthusiastic, suggesting many others feel the same way.

Okay, so I just finished playing 1000xResist, and seriously, if you’re into games with a great story, you need to check this one out. It starts off really weird and honestly stays that way, but it works! It’s one of those games where the story just grabs you and doesn’t let go – once it really gets going, I couldn’t put it down until I saw the credits roll. It’s a total rollercoaster!

The author adds that if you prioritize gameplay, this game probably isn’t for you. It’s mostly focused on conversations and simple movement. However, if you love a good story, they highly recommend it, calling it one of the best games ever made and their all-time favorite story, in any form of entertainment.

One commenter said they finished the game around four months ago and called it one of the best stories they’ve seen in a game for a long time.

Some players shared similar opinions, but others tried the game and didn’t stick with it, mainly because it doesn’t offer much in the way of traditional gameplay. If you enjoy visual novels, this game is definitely worth checking out. However, if you’re not a fan of the genre, this game probably won’t change your mind, and it’s a significant time commitment. The story takes around 10 to 14 hours to experience, so you can’t get through it in just a couple of hours.

If you’re not excited about the new game added to Xbox Game Pass today, don’t worry – six more are on the way! However, one game currently available only on Xbox Series X is leaving soon, so you might want to play that one before trying the new addition.
