Earlier this month, Microsoft revealed the first wave of its Xbox Game Pass slate. Including a beloved classic with Diablo and a fairly decent MMA fighter with EA Sports UFC 5, this month’s entries were already solid, but Xbox has now revealed its second wave of games coming to the subscription service, including five day-one titles.
