There aren&#8217;t too many surprises among this first wave of April newcomers, though. Many of these additions were previously confirmed, while <em>EA Sports NHL 26<\/em> and <em>Call of Duty: Modern Warfare <\/em>(the remake) were always going to join Game Pass at some point.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">Still, there&#8217;s plenty to dive into on the service this month. April 14 is a particularly eye-catching day, with both <em>Hades 2<\/em> (which is debuting on Xbox Series X\/S and PS5) and the long-awaited <em>Replaced<\/em> hitting Game Pass alongside the turn-based, character-driven RPG<em> The Thaumaturge<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">Here&#8217;s a breakdown of
