      The Game Pass lineup for May has been revealed, and it's no surprise that Doom: The Dark Ages stands out as the highlight. However, it’s not the only game that deserves your attention! This month offers a variety of titles, including anime-inspired fighters and quirky Metroidvanias that promise hours of entertainment.

      We're also seeing the return of a previous Game Pass title, several games upgrading their tiers, along with new perks and DLC.

You’ll need to explore and gather upgrades to survive and find your way back to Earth.

      **Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed (Cloud, PC, Console) — May 8**

      **Warhammer: Vermintide 2 (Cloud, Console) — May 13**

      Returning to the Game Pass library after a long hiatus, Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is a wave shooter akin to Helldivers 2, set in the Warhammer Fantasy universe. Partner with three others to battle through enemy hordes, loot, and enhance your character into a more formidable force.

      As the prequel to Doom and Doom: Eternal, Doom: The Dark Ages continues the demon-slaying excitement but with a medieval flair. Dressed in a cape and utilizing a shield adorned with saw blades, you will confront a plethora of demons and foes.

      **Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo (Cloud, PC, Console) — May 16**

      This day-one Game Pass title immerses players in Limbo, where you assist the trapped souls in releasing their regrets. It’s an adorable, vibrant papercraft game that acts as a refreshing change after some of the heavier titles on the list.
