Celebrate the scary seasonXbox is lining up (https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2022/10/18/game-pass-october-2022-wave-2-announce/) its later Game Pass additions for October, and it's an interesting mix. There are some scares, some mysteries, and one big RPG that can easily take your time.
Persona 5 Royal is one of the big additions for this month on Xbox Game Pass. It hits cloud, console, and PC on October 21, bringing the previously PlayStation-exclusive RPG to new platforms.
Worth noting that Royal also hits PlayStation 5 (https://www.destructoid.com/impressions-persona-5-royal-ps5-xbox-pc-switch/) and Nintendo Switch (https://www.nintendo.com/store/products/persona-5-royal-switch/), as well as Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/agecheck/app/1687950/), on October 21.

If you're looking for frights though, might I suggest the Amnesia games and, especially, Soma? All arrive on Game Pass this month, and SOMA (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-soma/) is one story I don't think I'll be able to dislodge from my head anytime soon.
While the Amnesia series focuses on a lot of medieval and traditional horror, SOMA goes sci-fi and absolutely nails it. Even if you're not a fan of the horror aspects, for gameplay or for scares, there is an option to turn that all down (https://www.destructoid.com/soma-is-coming-out-with-a-comforting-new-safe-mode/).
Other additions this month include Signalis, a sci-fi horror game with Resident Evil vibes that I've been looking forward to (https://www.destructoid.com/signalis-preview-tribeca-summer-2021/) for a while. You could also flee hordes of rats in the new Plague Tale (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/a-plague-tale-requiem-review-destructoid-ps5-pc-xbox-asobo-focus-adventure/) game.
And if you'd rather just vibe and solve some mysteries, there's also Frog Detective: The Entire Mystery. Here is the full end-of-October lineup for Xbox Game Pass.
