Microsoft announces a batch of free games twice a month with the first made public at the end of the month prior and the second set of games announced at the end of the current month. June's list of free games have already been announced and they include games such as Hypnospace Outlaw and – perhaps the best game title of 2023 – Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer from developer No More Robots.
The Mirror reports that also included is the highly anticipated new entry into the indie horror series – and YouTube reaction video goldmine – Amnesia. The new game titled Amnesia: The Bunker takes place in – you guessed it – an underground bunker. Set during World War 1, Amnesia: The Bunker features a semi-open world and takes inspiration from classic immersive sim titles like System Shock and Thief and seems to be the most interesting the series has been since the original title launched back in 2010.
Currently only the first batch of Xbox Game Pass June 2023 titles has been revealed, but perhaps we mind find out what's still to come during this weeks Xbox and Starfield Showcase.
