It’s time for another episode of Game Rant Arcade, this time recorded on Saint Patrick’s Day, the luckiest day of the year. While it was a fairly slow news week, there’s still quite a bit for Cameron and Anthony to discuss in Game Rant Arcade Episode 13, even featuring a bit ofDungeons and Dragons: Dark Alliancetalk.
Kicking things off,Outridersis headed to Xbox Game Passon day one, offering players a big new game to enjoy on the service. It’s a big deal for both the game and the service, and may indicate that Xbox is after even more third-party games for the future. With Game Pass also adding 20 Bethesda games recently, Game Pass is becoming increasingly central to Microsoft’s plans.

Next up,Jade Raymond is working on a PlayStation exclusive game. There are next to no details about what this will end up being, but considering Raymond’s previous work on franchises likeAssassin’s Creed,it could be a big win for PlayStation. With Raymond’s studio being so new, it’ll likely be some time before fans hear anything else on the project.
On top of that.Crystal Dynamics is hiringfor a new project. While the Square Enix Presents show essentially confirmed that it’s not a newTomb Raidergame, it’s still promising for the developer. Unfortunately, Crystal Dynamics is still struggling withMarvel’s Avengers’poor reception.
Finally, Nintendo is expecting a ton of software sales between now and next year, but it isn’t entirely clear why. Plus,Dying Light 2released a developer update, sort of, but it didn’t do much to inspire confidence in the upcoming zombie game.
