Not a good time to lose one’s Skul
It’s a new month, which means there’s a new wave of games to join and leave Game Pass. As of today, we know of a new set of leavers, and it includes head-turning action platformerSkul: The Hero Slayerand the wonderfully destructive Besiege.Skul: The Hero Slayer - Official Launch TrailerWatch on YouTubeYou surely know Besiege, given that it’s got 40,000 overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam. It’s about building your own medieval siege engine and then using it to destroy pastoral dioramas with gloriously physicsy results. It’s a real shame that it’s leaving Game Pass, because it’s an excellent toy that’s easy to lose hundreds of hours inside.Skul: The Hero Slayer is only slightly less well-known, and mainly because it’s easy to mistake for about a dozen other 2D rogue-lite platformers. Skul is agood one though, in which you throw your own head at enemies like a grenade and then teleport to its location to continue to hack-and-slash fight.The other games handing back their pass are: Recompile, a hacking action-adventureEd liked quite a bit; Infernax, which is a sort ofGhouls ‘n’ Ghosts ‘em up; and The LastKidsOn Earth And The Staff Of Doom, a zombie-smashing action RPG whichgeez I guess no one realised existed.All of these games will leave on February 16th.
