Microsoft already announced that Red Dead Redemption 2 will join Xbox Game Pass for Console tomorrow, May 7, but three new Xbox One games will also be added to the catalog in May. Good news for fans of survival adventures, the open-world multiplayer game DayZ, which was released on Xbox One a year ago, will be playable starting tomorrow along with Red Dead Redemption 2.

Two more games will be available on Xbox Game Pass next week, starting with Final Fantasy IX on May 14. This one is actually an Xbox Play Anywhere game, so you’ll be able to play it on both Xbox One and Windows 10. Fractured Minds, an immersive puzzle game with RPG elements will also follow on May 19.

Microsoft also announced some new bonus perks for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members in May: Subscribers in the US and UK can get six months of Spotify Premium for free, while subscribers in France, Germany, Australia, Mexico and Brazil can get 3 free months of Spotify Premium. This offer is only available for new Spotify Premium members, the Xbox team said today.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Perks can be redeemed in the Xbox Game Pass mobile app or the Xbox beta app for Windows 10. As a reminder, those of you who never subscribed to Xbox Game Pass can still get their first month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for just $1.
