The best games for Xbox newcomers

If you're hopping over from the PlayStation country, or just picking up your first game console, there are plenty of worthy Xbox titles worth diving into. Sure, Microsoft hasn't been as aggressive as Sony when it comes to hustling for big budget exclusives, something we knocked the Xbox Series X for in our review. Still, it's not as if there's nothing to play. And Microsoft has one major advantage that Sony doesn't: Xbox Game Pass, its subscription service with a rotating selection of popular titles. Notably, Game Pass also gives you access to every first-party Xbox game the day they launch, and those titles never leave the service. That alone makes the subscription a much better deal than spending $60 on a new release.
