March is a great month for Xbox Game Pass, with multiple day-one drops including 33 Immortals and Atomfall, as well as even more titles coming to Game Pass Standard. Unfortunately, the addition of new games also means some of your favorites will be leaving Game Pass. We’ll have a full list of the titles you should binge while you still can at the end of this story.

March 18: 33 Immortals

For starters, 33 Immortals is available today on both Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. This co-op roguelike teams you up with 32 other players to take on huge monsters and challenging bosses. Fight until you fall, and then permanently upgrade your character for the next run.

This month’s Game Pass additions are particularly divine. Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island comes to the service on March 20, putting you in the shoes of a backpacker shipwrecked on an island. You aren’t alone, though; the Greek gods are all there, but they’ve lost their memories. This cozy title is all about befriending and saving these mythological figures.

March 25: Blizzard Arcade Collection

Old-school arcade fans can celebrate with The Blizzard Arcade Collection, containing classic games like Blackthorne, The Lost Vikings 1 & 2, Rock N Roll Racing, and RPM Racing. The collection also has fun extras like concept art, interviews, and more.

March 27: Atomfall

Another major day-one release, Atomfall takes inspiration from the real-world events of the Windscale nuclear disaster in Northern England. With a lot of Fallout-like vibes, Atomfall has you explore the quarantine zone, fighting irradiated monsters, bartering for supplies, and so much more.

Game Pass Core

In addition to a slew of new titles joining the library, Game Pass Core is getting Octopath Traveler II and Train Sim World 5 tomorrow. On March 26, the delightful roguelike-meets-monster-taming game Monster Sanctuary joins Game Pass Core, alongside Tunic and Batman: Arkham Knight.

Well… at least God of War Laufey is getting a physical disc
Santa Monica Studio quietly confirmed the upcoming adventure won't be download-only.

Last week, Sony lit the gaming community on fire by announcing that all new PlayStation games released from January 2028 onwards would be digital-only, effectively bringing an end to physical discs for future releases. At the same time, the company also confirmed it would shut down the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita digital stores by July 2027, reinforcing concerns that digital storefronts and the games tied to them don't last forever. Unsurprisingly, the announcements triggered widespread backlash from collectors and long-time PlayStation fans. In the middle of all that, Santa Monica Studio offered a surprisingly comforting update: God of War Laufey will be available on disc. It's only one sentence, but it says a lot.

More than just a physical release

Samsung has a new breed of OBLYX OLED panels and they should appear on your gaming laptops soon
Samsung's new OBLYX brand is all about OLED gaming laptops
Samsung Display’s Gaming-optimized OLED Products Showcased at COMPUTEX 2026

Samsung Display has introduced OBLYX, its first dedicated OLED brand for gaming laptops, as the company looks to strengthen its position in one of the fastest-growing segments of the PC market. The announcement was made at Bilibili World 2026 (BW2026) in Shanghai, marking Samsung Display's first appearance at China's largest gaming and anime convention.

Rather than unveiling a new display technology, Samsung is creating a recognizable identity for its gaming-focused OLED panels, much like established branding for processors or graphics cards. The move also hints at the company's ambitions in China, where demand for OLED-equipped gaming laptops is accelerating rapidly, according to a Digital Today report.

Razer’s Sanrio collaboration has already produced a full desk setup, and the final drop is now here. The company has launched the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 BT Cinnamoroll Edition, a wireless headset themed around one of Sanrio’s most recognizable characters.

Cinnamoroll is a white puppy from Sanrio, the Japanese company behind Hello Kitty and several other globally recognized character brands. He is known for his long floppy ears, blue eyes, curly tail, and soft cloud-like look. As per the Sanrio lore, he was born high above the clouds and can fly by flapping his big ears. Razer has leaned heavily into that identity for this headset, replacing the usual kitty look with Cinnamoroll’s floppy ears and a sky-blue color scheme.
