‘Control’ to Join The Xbox Game Pass Next Month?
If you’re still on the fence about plunking down cash for Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass, even after DOOM Eternal‘s arrival on the service back in October, then perhaps the upcoming additions will help you make a decision.
While not outright confirmed, the official Xbox Game Pass Twitter account is at it again, this time alluding to Remedy Entertainment’s Control heading to the service.

For those who haven’t played Control (and why not?!), the “sinister red light” referred to in the email more than likely is talking about a traffic light flashing red, which is integral to part of Control‘s story. No word on just when Control will be available, but you can pretty much expect it in December.
And if by some chance you haven’t played Control, you can currently pick it up the Ultimate Edition as part of the last Black Friday sales on Steam and on the Epic Games Store.
With Zombies Ate My Neighbors inspiring Mega Cat Studios with Lethal Wedding, how about some more? Deep Type Games is another upcoming dev taking after the LucasArts classic with their upcoming VR shooter game, Cute & Dead. Currently slated to arrive later this summer on the Meta Quest, the game is also planned to hit SteamVR later this year, and while the PlayStation VR2 isn’t planned yet, the devs aren’t ruling it out “down the road”.
Described as a fast-paced zombie shooter with collectible elements and a dating-sim twist, Cute & Dead touts fast, chaotic, and “just plain fun” combat that blends the nostalgic feeling of classics like Zombies Ate My Neighbors with VR technology. The story puts you in the shoes of a typical nerd trying to ask the hottest girl in school out on a date. Complicating things is the untimely arrival of a zombie apocalypse. That won’t stop you in your quest for love! All you need to do is find her and rescue her from hordes of the living dead.
You’ll have 30 unique girlfriends to meet and save across eight unique maps. Standing in your way are eight different enemy types, but you’ve got 10 weapon varieties at your disposal. You won’t be alone in your mission, either. You’ll have a cute dog companion who fights by your side in the fast-paced gameplay.
