Orcs Must Die! 3 cuts a path onto Xbox Game Pass
Set 20 years after the events of its predecessor, Orcs Must Die! 3 sees the War Mage and Sorceress rebuild their order to cull the rising horde of Orcs. This installment goes bigger in every way over the earlier games, offering even more traps, upgrades, and weapons for you and your co-op partner to wield across a host of game modes, including new wave-based War Scenarios, which see you facing Orc armies on the battlefield. If you’re looking for some high-energy fun with friends, Orcs Must Die! 3 could be well worth a look.
Players subscribed to Xbox Game Pass or PC Game Pass can play Orcs Must Die! 3 on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC, while Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can also stream it via Xbox Cloud Gaming.
If you do decide to dive into this great tower defense game, it takes between 40 and 50 hours to unlock all of the base game’s 26 achievements, according to estimates. For the full completion, however, you’ll need to purchase the two additional Orcs Must Die! 3 DLC packs as well, which are not included with the Xbox Game Pass version of the game. The two packs include an extra 12 achievements between them but do increase Orcs Must Die! 3’s total available Gamerscore to a whopping 2,150G, so it could be worth the investment.
Orcs Must Die! 3 is the first game to drop into Game Pass from the second batch of upcoming Xbox Game Pass games for April, which Microsoft revealed yesterday also includes Another Crab’s Treasure, Manor Lords, and more.
