January brought a swathe of new games to the cloud, including the ever popular Palworld and Persona 3 Reload. This hasn’t deterred Xbox from bringing another load of games to the service. One game is returning after a brief absence, which is always nice to see. And again, there is a nice mix of games catering for most players. Lets see what we can look forward to.
