During the ID@Xbox Showcase, co-op dinosaur shooter Second Extinction is announced to be coming to Xbox Game Pass next month.

Today's Xbox Showcase featured over 60 games coming to Xbox including 20 indie games that will release on Game Pass first day. Along with announcing many indie games coming to Game Pass, Xbox has also revealed an Xbox title coming to Game Pass at the end of April. During the ID@Xbox Showcase, a trailer revealed the three-player co-op dinsaur shooter game Second Extinction will be hitting Game Pass on April 28.

Developed by Systemic Reaction and Avalanche Studios, Second Extinction features three-person teams taking on a variety of missions that will test players against mutated dinosaurs on large-scale maps. Players will complete different mission objectives, all while facing threats of dinosaurs in different areas. Teamwork is important, so players can grab two friends and jump into the fast-paced combat against dinosaurs.

With Second Extinction coming to Xbox Game Pass, the community in the title is expected to grow, possibly meaning that the game will receive more content as it transitions from early access to a full game release. In Second Extinction, the community's efforts towards eliminating mutated dinosaurs is dynamic, meaning that the war against the dinosaurs will be ever-changing in the future, depending on how the community takes action.

Second Extinction first released on PC in October of 2020, and now will release on Xbox platforms. Previously, Second Extinction was scheduled to release on Xbox as a part of Xbox Game Preview as an early access game before its full release. Now, the title will debut on Xbox as a part of Xbox Game Pass, which may be very exciting for the game service's owners. Second Extinction has also been optimized for the Xbox Series X/S, so owners of the newest consoles will experience the dinosaur-slaying action with faster load times and framerates up to 120 per second.

Xbox Game Pass has an extensive roster of games, and based on the Xbox Showcase today, the list is growing. Second Extinction will join a number of indie games on Game Pass including adventure game Omno and hacking-focused 3D platformer Recompile. While Second Extinction will hit Game Pass next month, Omno and Recompile will release later in 2021.

Before Second Extinction hits Game Pass on April 28, Xbox players will have a notable title release on Xbox Game Pass in just a few days. The upcoming RPG shooter Outriders will be releasing on Xbox Game Pass on April 1, although PC players will not receive the title on Game Pass on its release.

Second Extinction is out now in early access on PC, with Xbox One and Xbox Series X versions releasing on April 28.
