“We announced that fans will be able to play SCARLET NEXUS today with Xbox Game Pass from the award-winning team at Bandai Namco Entertainment in Japan. The title is playable on console, PC, tablet and Cloud Gaming, where available, with touch controls.”

Scarlet Nexus was first released in June 2021 to mostly good reviews from fans and critics, with many praising its complex yet stylish combat system, eye-catching animation inspired by anime, and its sci-fi story about a post-apocalyptic world overrun by monsters, and those who have risen up to liberate the world from the inter-dimensional beings.

It’s particularly surprising that Scarlet Nexus is coming to Xbox Game Pass, considering that it just launched a few months ago. Bandai Namco’s RPG will also be joined by Marvel’s Avengers today, which was announced by Crystal Dynamics to also hit Game Pass. Xbox also spoke a bit more about another big release this year coming to Xbox Game Pass, Back 4 Blood, which is slated to release in October.
