In today's Daily Fix:
Microsoft has revealed the second wave of games coming to the Game Pass service this month. Headlining the group is Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2. The game is the long-awaited follow-up to the 2017 action-adventure game that proved to be an indie hit. Also coming to the service is Lords of the Fallen (not to be confused with the 2014 Lords of the Fallen, of which this is a quasi-sequel/soft reboot), EA Sports NHL 24, Chants of Sennaar, Moving Out 2, Immortals of Aveum, and more. In other news, Square Enix is admitted their latest Final Fantasy games have not met financial expectations. Last year's Final Fantasy 16, this year's Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and the multiplayer game Foamstars contributed to a loss of operating income for the company. Square Enix will undergo a restructuring, and will pursue a multiplatform strategy (Final Fantasies 16 and 7 Rebirth were both PS5 exclusive). And finally, in video game-adjacent news, Prime Video has ordered the live-action Tomb Raider show to series, meaning production will be fully underway with writer and executive producer Phoebe Waller-Bridge at the helm.d

Game Pass Wave 2 Games for April 2024 Announced - IGN Daily Fix: In today's Daily Fix: The second wave of titles coming to Game Pass have been announced, and there's a little bit of something for everyone. The well-reviewed stop-motion adventure game Harold Halibut will be a day one launch title, along with soulslike Another Man's Treasure and JRPG Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. Sports fans will get EA Sports NHL 24, and strategy nerds will like Orcs Must Die! 3 and the hotly anticipated Manor Lords for PC. In other news, Ubisoft is responding to the negative feedback surrounding the Jabba the Hutt missions in Star Wars Outlaws. Fans are more than a little upset that single-player content that's ready for launch is going to be locked behind a season pass. Ubisoft is claiming that anyone buying the base version of Star Wars Outlaws will get to experience Jabba in all his Hutt glory, but whether or not the extra mission is worth the price of the season pass is yet to be seen.
