Four games coming to Xbox Gold in October 2021

The Xbox Gold library is receiving four new games this month which subscribers will have exclusive access to.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members will also have exclusive access to this month's four new additions to the library as part of their subscription.

This month's games include a sound-driven rhythm experience with musical boss battles, a cyberpunk parkour that lets you jump through a massive neon city, a classic and iconic platform vampire-fighting game and a fan-favourite survival horror classic.

Aaero

Aaero is a rhythm-focused game that lets players shoot through alien landscapes while listening to a fully licenced electronic dance soundtrack.

Developed by an independent British studio, this game may seem simple on the surface but will quickly reveal itself to players as a deceptively difficult title that needs skill and your full attention.

The main goal of the game is to shoot anything blocking your path as you wrap around beams of light and absorb the musical energy scattered around each level.

If you're interested in buying the game separately from Xbox Gold, you can do so here .

Hover

Hover is a fast-paced game that will test your parkour abilities as you explore the massive neon lights of Hover City.

A cyberpunk game wouldn't be the same without some kind of semi-dystopian theme - in Hover, will be tasked with joining the rebellion as they rise up against a tyranny that opposes any form of leisure.

Yep, having fun is now apparently illegal in Hover City and we simply can't let that continue, you will join the rebellion and sabotage the oppressive security forces while dodging them with high-tech gear, amazing jumps and spectacular speed.

Castlevania: Harmony of Despair

This classic and iconic 2D platform survival game has been upgraded and can now be played in 1080p!

If you're not familiar with the Castlevania series, you may likely still recognise the name and there's a good reason for that.

Alongside Metroid, this game gave birth to its own genre of video games which are still being developed to this day; known as Metroidvania games.

In Harmony of Despair, players will be facing off against the diabolical and terrifying Dracula who has summoned a horde of monsters to wreak havoc on the world.

Resident Evil Code: Veronica X

Veronica X is a fan-favourite addition to the iconic survival horror series Resident Evil.

It follows the story of Claire Redfield as she continues to search for her missing brother which has now taken her from Raccoon City to the creepy Rockfort Island.

Now, Claire must fight through another horde of horrific zombies infected with a mysterious virus to escape the horrors of the island.
