Star Truckersa space-based trucking simulation developed by Monster and Monster was released on Xbox Game Pass today as a day-one release. Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass continues to be a useful way for avid gamers to try out titles they might not have otherwise purchased because they may have thought they weren’t their thing. The subscription service offers hundreds of titles, from indie to AAA, and a wide variety of genres.

Many exciting titles have already been confirmed to be coming to the service this month, and some of them will make fans of two specific genres very happy to have an Xbox Game Pass subscription in September. For people who like simulation games, Star Truckers is accompanied by Expeditions: A MudRunner Game on 5 September and Train Sim World 6 on September 17. Strategy game fans will be excited about three upcoming Game Pass Day One releases: Age of Mythology: Retold, Frostpunk 2And Ara: Untold story.

To kick off the release of several top games in September, Xbox Game Pass has added Star Truckers to its selection of games. The trucking simulation lets players get behind the wheel of a semi-truck and haul cargo, but with an interesting twist. The long-distance haul takes place in interstellar space, complete with hyper-highways, warp jumps, and a star map for route planning. Players can, of course, maintain and upgrade their truck to improve its ability to handle the journey through more dangerous areas. Turning on the CB radio will uncover side jobs and, perhaps most importantly, help truckers stay up to date on space gossip.

Games confirmed for Xbox Game Pass in September

Star Truckers is the passion project of a two-man studio that brought in their friends to develop this unique simulation game. In the months leading up to release, the developers have shared some details about what players can expect from the game when it launches on September 3rd. There will be five difficulty modes, including a custom option that lets players fine-tune the balance between transportation and maintenance. Players can spacewalk like astronauts to check their equipment, and by earning XP they can unlock new load types and weights to perform more complicated tasks.

Just a few days after the launch of Monster and Monsters Trucking Simulation, Expeditions: A MudRunner Game will also be included in the Xbox Game Pass catalog. After the success of Mud Runner And SnowRunnerSaber Interactive has decided to make a spin-off that focuses a little more on exploration than transportation. Players will explore archaeological sites, wooded forests, mysterious ruins, steep slopes and deep rivers in Arizona and the European Carpathians in Expeditions: A MudRunner game.
