Raji: An Ancient Epic has become the first fully made-in-India game to join Xbox Game Pass, with Microsoft's game subscription service announcing Tuesday that it was adding the action-adventure title on Thursday, July 22. Developed by Pune-based Nodding Heads, Raji: An Ancient Epic will be available on Xbox Game Pass for PCs, Xbox consoles, and via game streaming on Android, iPhone, iPad, and PCs. Raji: An Ancient Epic is one of seven indie titles — part of the ID@Xbox initiative — that are coming to Xbox Game Pass in July. The other major inclusion is solo/ co-op action shooter The Ascent that launches on Xbox Game Pass on day one, July 29. It's exclusive to Xbox and PC.
Starting now, Xbox Game Pass' game streaming collection has grown by a further 15 titles, including Battlefield V, Cities: Skylines, Darkest Dungeon, Fable Anniversary, Fable II, Fable III, Fuzion Frenzy, Gonner2, Joy Ride Turbo, Outlast 2, Steep, The Bard's Tale ARPG, The Bard's Tale IV, The Bard's Tale Trilogy, and The Wild at Heart. If you have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and you live in a supported region, you can now play more than 80 titles via Game Pass on Android and Apple devices and Windows PCs.
In its Tuesday announcement, Microsoft also reiterated what we have known about: Microsoft Flight Simulator is coming to Xbox Series S/X on July 27. It will be available on Xbox One consoles via game streaming at a later date.
As always, some games will leave Xbox Game Pass at the end of July: It Lurks Below (PC and consoles), The Touryst (PC, cloud, and consoles), and UnderMine (PC, cloud, and consoles) will leave their parenthetical platforms on July 31. You can buy them at a discount of up to 20 percent before they are gone.
Here's the full list of Xbox Game Pass titles from July 2021. In India, Xbox Game Pass costs Rs. 489 per month on PC and console, while Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (which also includes EA Play, Xbox Live Gold aka Xbox network, and game streaming in select markets) comes in at Rs. 699 per month.
