Last month, Microsoft added 18 titles to its subscription-based Xbox Game Pass service, though Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 was quickly removed without warning. 

Alongside a number of modern games, Microsoft also added classic Xbox title Conker: Live And Reloaded as part of the revived Backwards Compatibility Program. “We’re committed to keeping games from four generations of Xbox playable for years to come,” said Xbox’s Jason Ronald. “As part of our 25th anniversary later this year, we’ll be rolling out new ways to play some of the most iconic games from our past.”

Yesterday (August 3) the first wave of August additions for Xbox Game Pass were revealed.
