The Call of Duty franchise got its start as a first-person shooter set during World War II. Game Pass subscribers can now return to that war and take part in historical battles in Call of Duty: WWII.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, a CNET Editors’ Choice award pick, offers hundreds of games you can play on your Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One and PC or mobile device for $20 a month. A subscription gives you access to a large library of games, with new titles, including Doom: The Dark Ages, added monthly, plus other benefits such as online multiplayer and deals on non-Game Pass titles.

Call of Duty: WWII

Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass and Game Pass Standard subscribers can play now.

Land in Normandy on D-Day and battle across Europe in this Call of Duty game. You’ll trade in some of the more modern gadgets and guns from the Modern Warfare and Black Ops games for grease guns and classic carbines in this game from 2017. You’ll also experience the bonds of camaraderie, the unforgiving nature of war and more as you fight against the Nazis.

Warcraft 1: Remastered (PC)

Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers can play now.

Get ready to experience the war between orcs and humans that shook Azeroth more than 30 years ago. You decide whether to defend humanity or seek to destroy it playing this real-time strategy game. This version of the classic game features enhanced controls, widescreen battles and more updates so you can enjoy this game on modern hardware.

Warcraft 2: Remastered (PC)

Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers can play now.

After playing the original Warcraft game, you can hop into the sequel. You’ll captain your own fleet and explore far-off lands for this real-time strategy game that delves even further into the war between orcs and humans. This updated version includes modernized controls, new visuals and more fresh features.

Warcraft 3: Reforged (PC)

Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers can play now.

After playing the first and second Warcraft games, why not play the third installment? This game introduces two new races of armies to command: the Night Elves and the Undead. Build massive armies, relive epic battles and explore huge campaigns in this real-time strategy game filled with overhauled visuals and contemporary social and matchmaking features.

Star Trucker

New to Game Pass Standard.

Game Pass Ultimate subscribers have been able to play this interstellar hauling game since September, and now Game Pass Standard subscribers can enjoy it as well. Haul cargo, trade items with other truckers and explore the ultimate open road — outer space. Take the driver’s seat in a rocket-powered big rig and cruise the hyperhighways as you deliver cargo across the galaxy. Customize your rig, gossip on your CB radio with other truckers and enjoy your view of the stars.

Wildfrost

New to Game Pass Standard.

Microsoft brought this to Game Pass Ultimate subscribers in January, and now the company is bringing it to Game Pass Standard customers. An endless winter has blanketed the world and to banish it, you need to build the perfect deck to battle the evil forces across the cold land. You’ll rescue and recruit frozen companions and uncover treasure in the frozen tundra. The deck you build is influenced by the path you take, so choose carefully.

Rematch

Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers can play now.

Tackle, dribble and score in this team-based football game (or soccer, depending on your locale). This game was designed for 5v5 online multiplayer matches where players control a single athlete. That means you’ll have to coordinate and plan with the rest of your team if you want to win. And with no player stats to give one person an advantage over another, coordination is the key to success.

Volcano Princess

Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers can play now.

This game is technically a social simulation game, but you can also call it a parenting game. You’re the king of the Volcano Kingdom, and after your wife dies, you have to raise your daughter alone. That means it’s up to you to ensure she has everything she needs to grow. You’ll explore new hobbies with her, show her court etiquette and watch as she grows and matures.

Against the Storm (console and cloud)

Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can play now.

You have to rebuild civilization after apocalyptic rains brought it all down in this dark fantasy city builder. But instead of focusing on helping a single city or community, in this game, you must build a network of interconnected settlements made of different races to prosper. You’ll need to figure out how to make the humans, beavers, harpies, lizards and foxes coexist, or they will all perish.

Little Nightmares 2

Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass and Game Pass Standard subscribers can play on July 1.

«Charming» and «horror» are not usually paired together to describe anything, but those two words work nicely to talk about Little Nightmares. You play as a little boy named Mono who finds a girl locked in a basement. The two of you will work together to open trapdoors, climb huge furniture and survive the terrors of the Pale City.

Rise of the Tomb Raider

Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass and Game Pass Standard subscribers can play on July 1.

This one is returning to Game Pass a few months after Microsoft removed it from the service. This is the second entry in the Survival trilogy of the popular franchise, and it follows Lara Croft as she searches for the legendary city of Kitezh. You’ll use stealth and your wits to traverse environments without being noticed by enemies on Croft’s first tomb raiding expedition.

Games that left Game Pass

While Microsoft is set to add those games to Game Pass soon, the company removed six others from the service. So you will have to buy these games separately now if you need to finish your campaign or any sidequests.

• Arcade Paradise
• Journey to the Savage Planet
  My Friend Peppa Pig
• Robin Hood: Sherwood Builders
• SteamWorld Dig
• SteamWorld Dig 2

Hint for today’s Strands puzzle

Today’s Strands theme is: Trellis beauties.

If that doesn’t help you, here’s a clue: How does your garden grow?

Clue words to unlock in-game hints

Your goal is to find hidden words that fit the puzzle’s theme. If you’re stuck, find any words you can. Every time you find three words of four letters or more, Strands will reveal one of the theme words. These are the words I used to get those hints but any words of four or more letters that you find will work:

• MIME, STIR, STIM, STIMS, CLIP, SWEET, LOVE, FOOL, SWAT, WISE, SWEEP, SWEPT, WEPT, TIRE, TIRES

Answers for today’s Strands puzzle

These are the answers that tie into the theme. The goal of the puzzle is to find them all, including the spangram, a theme word that reaches from one side of the puzzle to the other. When you have all of them (I originally thought there were always eight but learned that the number can vary), every letter on the board will be used. Here are the nonspangram answers:

• JASMINE, CLEMATIS, SWEETPEA, WISTERIA, MOONFLOWER.

Today’s Strands spangram

Today’s Strands spangram is CLIMBER. To find it, start with the C that’s six letters down on the farthest row to the left, and wind up and over.
