FIFA 23

Loved and also hated by many, FIFA 23 is the best sports game in Xbox Game Pass, and there are a few reasons why. The first one is that, it's the last entry in the FIFA franchise under the EA Sports umbrella which makes it a historic game.

However, what really matters is that the game is also one of the best in the franchise.

Skate 3

It's been more than ten years since Skate 3 came out, and many still consider it the best skateboarding game ever made.

Fight Night Champion

In a game catalogue where you have UFC 4, Mortal Kombat 11, and Chivalry 2, Fight Night Champion still manages to be the best fighting game. The classic Xbox 360 game is among the best fighting games ever made, and if you have played it you know why.

Graphically, the game is okay, and it has a big learning curve for new players. However, once you get the hang of it, you won't be able to stop playing. You can choose to manage one of the biggest clubs in the world or take your small hometown team to the Champions League.

No matter what route you choose to take, you are in for an experience full of exciting, sad, happy, and unthinkable moments. FM 23 allows you to become a real coach and experience all the ups and downs of that journey.
