Earlier this week, Microsoft used the official Xbox site blog to celebrate the reveal of four upcoming (email-protected) games at GDC 2023, three of which have already been confirmed for Xbox Game Pass!
The first of them is Lana’s Planet, which still has a spring 2023 release window according to the blog. We’ve seen a lot of this game already, and here’s a bit what the Xbox team had to say about it:

“Tom Davis of Thunderful publishers said the game was like ‘Studio Ghibli did Inside.” I also remembered sometimes Ori and the Will of the Wisps…if any of these references have lifted your spirits, you’ll want to keep an eye out for Lana’s Planetwill be coming to Xbox and PC consoles with Game Pass this spring.”
Then, we have He Bluffers League, which was revealed during the Paradox Announcement Show earlier this month. This is another version of 2023, which the Xbox team says is initially reminiscent of “Indiana Jones Meets XCOM“:

“Bluffers League is “a globetrotting adventure” set in a stylized 1930s take. The initial vibes are very “Indiana Jones meets XCOMalthough after playing for an hour I think the closest comparison is the excellent year zero mutant.”
“The flexibility to choose when or even if to attack enemies, along with settings not often seen, make Bluffers League a must-have game for strategy lovers…”
The third release to come on this list is Venba, which was literally confirmed for Xbox Game Pass last week. What we didn’t know about this one is that it has artwork inspired by characters like Dexter’s Laboratory and The Powerpuff Girls!

“With drawings inspired by cartoons like “Dexter’s Laboratory” and “The Powerpuff Girls”, but more serious, Venba it will have a place in your plans this summer.
As mentioned, these have all been previously confirmed for Xbox Game Pass in 2023, but it’s nice to get a little more info on each one from Team Xbox – you can read all about it, as well only details on a fourth non-Game Pass game called botanic mansionon the official Xbox Wire site.
