If you’re looking for something like Dragon Age: The Veilguard, but something that’s ready to go on Game Pass then why not check out some of these titles instead?

One of the best places to start on Game Pass is with Dragon Age’s back catalogue.

Dragon Age Origins, Dragon Age 2 and Dragon Age Inquisition are all currently available so you will get a slice of the franchise’s history before moving onto The Veilguard.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey is an excellent open-world RPG that blends historical fiction with a smattering of mythological fantasy.

Alternatively, Diablo IV is a superb hack 'n' slash dungeon crawler that has us take on vicious creatures – it can be played multiplayer too.

Our last recommendation has to be Fable. The entire trilogy is on the platform at the moment and it's a worthy adventure that is light-hearted but with wonderful storytelling and combat.

It’ll also give you a chance to do some preparation for the upcoming Fable 4, although we’re some way off that landing yet.
