    What games should you play on Xbox Game Pass?

    With so many options to choose from, narrowing down the best Xbox Game Pass games currently available can be a challenge. The subscription service has grown in size, offering a massive library of big AAA games, new day-one releases, and even overlooked gems–like one of 2025’s best games, Blue Prince. The library is so expansive that you’re almost guaranteed to find at least a few games you’ll love and classics from yesteryear, thanks to the recent addition of Retro Classics.

    To help you navigate the ever-shifting landscape, we’ve rounded up the very best Game Pass games available now. There are plenty more excellent games on Xbox Game Pass than the ones we’ve listed below–the service is loaded with worthy games. These are just the games we think every Xbox owner should play, and we regularly review this list to make sure we stand by our choices and rotate in newer releases. We’ll continue to update this list as the Game Pass library adds new selections. Every month brings new games as well, and in case you missed it, here’s what you can download and play in December.

    • Best Xbox controllers
    • Best Xbox headsets

    Keep in mind that Xbox Game Pass comes in various tiers at different pricing levels, which were increased in November 2025: Essential, Premium, PC Game Pass, and Game Pass Ultimate. Game Pass Essential offers a catalogue of 50+ games and online multiplayer, while Premium bumps the number of playable games to 200. Game Pass Ultimate is the top-tier service that provides access to all games on day one, cloud streaming, and several more perks.

    • Game Pass Essential — $10 per month
    • Game Pass Premium — $15 per month
    • PC Game Pass — $16.49 per month
    • Game Pass Ultimate — $$30 per month

    For the purposes of this list, we looked at the whole Xbox Game Pass library available in the Ultimate tier, so if you’re subscribed to one of the other tiers–especially Essential–not every recommendation may be available. And while this list is a good place to get started, the library of games is even more expansive, and more games will be added throughout the year. Be sure to check back for updated recommendations.

    The Alters

    Some of the best games on Game Pass are the ones that push the limits on what a genre is capable of, letting you sample ambitious ideas for the cost of your subscription. In the case of The Alters, you’re getting a fascinating blend of survival, base-building, and resource management. The catch here are the human resources you have to work with, as protagonist Jan Dolski’s mission to escape an inhospitable planet is aided by his alternate selves, reflections of who he could have been if he’d made a different choice in life. The end result is both mechanically and narratively fascinating in this ambitious fusion of ideas from the studio behind This War of Mine.

    Read our The Alters review.

    Atomfall

    Who knows when Fallout 5 will ever emerge from a vault to see the light of day, but until then, games like Atomfall are proudly carrying the survival-action torch in its place. Inspired by the classic Bethesda series and the real-life Windscale Power Plant fire, Atomfall wastes no time throwing you into a weird and mysterious world. Full of existential dread and British charm, you’re free to chart your own path as you either journey deeper into the unknown or find yourself taking a detour from the golden path in this delightfully open-ended game.

    Read our Atomfall review.

    Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

    Ubisoft’s dive into an alien landscape dreamt up by James Cameron doesn’t stray too far from its established open-world formula, but Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a remarkably faithful recreation of those billion-dollar blockbusters. As a native of Pandora who was abducted, trained, and molded by the human militaristic corporation RDA to serve its interests, it’s up to you to reconnect with your heritage and discover what it truly means to be Na’vi in this first-person adventure.

    Read our Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora review.

    Avowed

    Following a dip into sci-fi with The Outer Worlds, Obsidian’s return to an RPG fantasy setting is one of this year’s biggest surprises. Set in the Pillars of Eternity universe, you play as a godlike–one who has been touched by a god leaving you marked in a way that’s visually distinct to everyone around you. Your journey through the Living Lands makes a point to streamline some classic RPG systems, while giving you an incredible amount of flexibility in others. Combat is a particular standout, as you can mix and match just about any variety of weapons and abilities, and easily respec to experiment with new combinations.

    Balatro

    Balatro was a breakout release last year–in fact, it was one of our favorite games of 2024–and the one-more-round roguelike poker game has only gotten better with subsequent updates. It’s now available on Xbox Game Pass, and came alongside a new Friends of Jimbo pack that lets you change the face cards to crossovers with games like Civilization VII, Assassin’s Creed, Fallout, Bugsnax, and more. If you’ve never caught up with the incredibly compelling and clever game, now is the time.

    Blue Prince

    You’ve never played a game quite like Blue Prince. The first-person puzzle game has you exploring an empty mansion, but this particular manor house has a special quality: It’s never the same from day to day, as the rooms appear as you “draft” them from a selection whenever you come to a door. The ultimate goal is to explore the mansion and reach the hidden Room 46, but the game’s many puzzles and mysteries unfold and interlock in ways that feel constantly enthralling. And since it’s on Game Pass, it’s easy to recommend with your existing subscription.

    Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

    The Call of Duty series has been among the top sellers for years, but some CoD games are clearly better than others. This year’s iteration, Black Ops 6, is the best the series has been in some time, and the first time that a new Call of Duty game has been available on Game Pass at launch. The campaign is a smart and varied action spectacle that keeps you on your toes as it explores paranoid thriller tropes set against global events in the 1990s. Meanwhile, the multiplayer’s new omni-movement makes matches feel fast and fluid, especially with the addition of inventive new maps that let you explore the space in a variety of ways. A revision to the perks system helps you specialize in interesting ways. Call of Duty has earned its reputation for a reason, and this latest release shows why.

    Celeste

    An impeccably crafted indie platformer, Celeste is known for its tough-but-fair difficulty and surprisingly emotionally engaging story. As you climb the mountain you’ll come face to face with devilish platforming challenges that will test your skill, all while discovering a subtle story of self-discovery and overcoming depression. It has a stellar 94 score on Metacritic, so don’t sleep on this one. And don’t worry if you aren’t a platforming pro, as Celeste has a full suite of difficulty modifiers that let you experience the climb on your own terms.

    Read our Celeste review.

    Death Stranding: Director’s Cut

    Hideo Kojima’s first game following his exit from Konami in the mid-2010s can be polarizing. Still, once it sinks its hooks into you, this tale of post-apocalyptic deliveries never lets go. The Director’s Cut improves on Kojima’s vision, introducing major quality-of-life changes, new storylines, and more gadgets to help you out during deliveries, deal with bandits, and keep a close eye on ghostly entities as you explore a world where humanity is on the brink of extinction.

    Read our Death Stranding: Director’s Cut review.

    Diablo IV

    When Microsoft finalized its acquisition of Activision Blizzard, it seemed like only a matter of time before the studio’s massive library started to come to Game Pass. We’re still waiting on a lot of the catalog, but it started with a big one. The latest in the beloved dungeon-crawling RPG series Diablo, Diablo IV, lets you delve into the deep and macabre world of Sanctuary to protect it from Lillith, the demon mother. With deep and immersive character building and a regular cadence of seasonal content to let you further expand your characters with new abilities, Diablo IV is not to be missed.

    Doom Eternal

    Bigger, bolder, and more brutal than ever, Id Software unleashed hell on Earth with Doom Eternal, much to the delight of everyone who played this sequel. Pure action from start to finish and unrelenting when the armies of the damned were thrown at you, Doom Eternal is a metal journey through the apocalypse that takes no prisoners.

    Read our Doom Eternal review.

    See at Xbox Store

    Doom: The Dark Ages

    Doom: The Dark Ages feels like a return to form for id Software’s iconic series. While Doom Eternal would regularly leave you breathless with its hyper-kinetic gameplay and resource-juggling, The Dark Ages keeps the action grounded by transforming the Doom Slayer into an overpowered engine of destruction. The stand-and-fight mantra guiding this prequel works wonders, while the bullet-hell challenge and shield-bashing gameplay makes ripping and tearing through demonic hordes feel more satisfying than ever.

    Read our Doom: The Dark Ages review.

    FBC: Firebreak

    FBC: Firebreak takes a while to get going, but once all of its pieces fall into place, this co-op first-person-shooter is an exciting stab at the live-service genre. The Control spin-off also makes a statement to the current hamster wheel of FOMO that live-service games attempt to force players to run on, making it a breath of fresh air in an industry where your attention span has become a valuable commodity.

    Read our FBC: Firebreak review.

    Forza Horizon 5

    Between its amazing visuals, myriad gameplay options, and bevy of content, Forza Horizon 5 is a racing game that anyone can enjoy. From a technical standpoint, it’s remarkable what the team at Playground Games achieved–everything from the meticulously detailed vehicle models to the lush virtual recreations of Mexico’s landscapes are visually engrossing.. Better yet, the gameplay is some of the best in the racing genre. Unlike the simulation-heavy Forza Motorsport line, the Forza Horizon series lean towards arcade racing, emphasizing player freedom in vast open worlds. Forza Horizon 5 doubles down on the philosophy, letting players focus on the type of experience they want–be that tense races against other players, single-player challenges and story content, or just chilling out and cruising the open road.

    Forza Motorsport

    Forza Motorsport goes back to the series’ roots as a simulation track racer, with stunning recreations of high performance vehicles. Car progression and upgrades are streamlined enough for fans to understand, but with the ability to get your hands dirty under the hood with precise fine-tuning. It’s a graphical showpiece for the Xbox, making it a great game to try on Game Pass regardless of whether you’re a gear-head.

    Gears of War: Reloaded

    The original Gears of War landed on Xbox 360 almost 20 years ago, and in a testament to its enduring popularity, this updated version of the classic still feels as fun to play today as it was in 2006. The game is still a tightly constructed shooter with plenty of blockbuster moments and one of the best weapons in gaming history, the Lancer chainsaw-rifle. This version polishes it up for modern-day hardware, but the gameplay remains as polished as ever while you work your way through encounters with the Locust army. Or as protagonist Marcus Fenix would say, nice.

    Gears Tactics

    Gears Tactics cleverly applies the aesthetic and atmosphere of the franchise to a tactics game. Despite being a totally different genre, Gears Tactics still feels like a natural addition to the iconic franchise thanks to sound mechanics and great level design. Many of the notable Gears of War gameplay systems and quirks are adapted into the top-down tactical spin on the genre. With a meaningful progression system, deep but approachable tactical encounters, and a number of great boss battles, Gears Tactics is a can’t-miss experience for Gears aficionados and strategy game fans alike.

    Grounded 2

    Obsidian’s survival-crafting sequel builds on the strong foundation established by the first game to deliver a vibrant alternative to all of the gloomy survival games on the market today. It’s still in an early access phase, but if history repeats itself, we’re expecting Grounded 2 to be a bigger and better sequel that remains fun to play while Obsidian continues to fine-tune it.

    Read our Grounded 2 review.

    Halo: The Master Chief Collection

    If you’ve never played the Halo franchise before, Halo: The Master Chief Collection is the perfect place to start. The Master Chief Collection comes with six Halo games, including remastered versions of the first two original Xbox entries. Halo features some of the very best single-player campaigns in the genre as well as extremely solid online multiplayer, at least after years of fixes and improvements. Back when the collection was originally released, the online multiplayer was spotty to say the least, but it has come a long way. Halo: The Master Chief Collection offers the best way to play some of the most heralded first-person shooters ever created.

    Hi-Fi Rush

    Hi-Fi Rush is a bright, popcorn animated adventure from the studio that brought you… The Evil Within? As surprising as that is, what may be even more impressive is that this is an absolute gem of a rhythm-action game. The original IP follows Chai, a good-hearted doofus who signs up for free cybernetic surgery and ends up with a Zune grafted into his chest. He comes out of the other side with the power to defeat corporate ne’er-do-wells to the gyrating beat of the world. It’s like Elite Beat Agents mashed together with Devil May Cry.

    High on Life 2

    While the humor doesn’t land as hard in High on Life 2 as it did in the first game, this sequel is still perfect for a weekend binge of fun. The new skateboarding gameplay mechanics can be very hit-or-miss. Still, an arsenal of talkative weapons, weird humor, and colorful art direction make for a fun time if you can overlook its technical flaws.

    Read our High on Life 2 review.

    Hollow Knight: Voidheart Edition

    Enchanting and utterly engrossing, Hollow Knight is one of the best metroidvanias ever made. Team Cherry’s adventure stars a nameless knight armed with a nail who explores a labyrinthine world known as Hallownest. With a gorgeous art style and an incredible amount of variation in the environments, Hollow Knight’s expansive world is a constant joy to explore. Challenging combat rewards those with patience and perseverance. Hollow Knight truly stands out in a fairly crowded genre. If you haven’t waded through Hallownest yet, now’s a great time to slay some insect ahead of the sequel, Hollow Knight: Silksong.

    Hollow Knight: Silksong

    After years of waiting–and several summoning circles–Hollow Knight: Silksong has finally arrived and it’s turning out to be an overwhelming follow-up to its predecessor. Team Cherry’s Hollow Knight follow-up builds on a successful formula, evolving it to a near-perfect state where you get to explore labyrinthine worlds, challenge powerful foes, and master a nuanced combat system as the protagonist, Hornet.

    I Am Your Beast

    One of 2024’sbest shooters, I Am Your Beast is the kind of game you boot up when you’re looking for quick but satisfying fun. Developed by Strange Scaffold, the studio behind another cult-classic,El Paso, Elsewhere, I Am Your Beast reinvents the movie trope of a retired special forces agent being called in for one last job and transforms it into a stylish gauntlet of danger as you sprint, slide, and shoot your way through entire armies of goons. The fast-paced nature of the game means that you have to think quickly if you want to avoid a bullet to the head, and each successful run is an exhilarating experience.

    Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

    MachineGames’ take on Indiana Jones is a masterful take on the famous relic hunter. The action is a tightly designed clockwork of action, stealth, and immersive-sim elements that capture Indy’s famous improvisational style. The story is rich and engaging and belongs right on the shelf next to some of Indy’s other great adventures. And the character and worldbuilding are all top-notch, which helps to sell Troy Baker’s take on the famous character popularized by actor Harrison Ford. It’s the complete package, and a great reason to subscribe to Game Pass.

    Read our Indiana Jones and the Great Circle review.

    Keeper

    Keeper is exactly the kind of game that Game Pass needs. A weird and experimental title from Double Fine, Keeper is an artistic triumph with a heartfelt tale at its core. Constantly interesting on a visual level and frequently reinventing itself with new gameplay hooks, Keeper is a strong example of why video games can be considered art.

    Read our Keeper review.

    Lost in Random: The Eternal Die

    Lost in Random: The Eternal Die wears its Hades influence proudly on its sleeve, but this roguelike action game also has several novel ideas of its own. The roll of the dice plays a crucial part in determining just how well–or poorly– your next run will go, and with a gripping story to boot, the game puts a fun spin on a familiar genre.

    See on Steam

    Manor Lords

    Though it’s still in early access, Manor Lords has quickly gained a following as a deep and engrossing strategy game that encompasses several different types of strategy at once. You’ll build a city with complex social and economic systems at play, as well as take part in huge tactical battles against rival lords. Building your civilization from almost nothing and helping it manage trials like an unforgiving winter is so satisfying, and the depth of the game is made even more impressive by it being the work of just one developer.

    See at Xbox Store

    Minami Lane

    Management sims are–by design–a stressful time. Sure, the sense of victory that comes from braving an administrative adventure is second to none, but Minami Lane puts a cozy spin on this genre so that your blood pressure doesn’t spike. It’s a digestible city-builder with a wholesome vibe that is worth checking out.

    Monster Train 2

    Save the Spire saw a new wave of roguelike deckbuilders follow in its wake, and Monster Train was easily one of the best. The bar was set high for the sequel, but Monster Train 2 is a confident follow-up to the first game that builds on its solid foundation and adds a few new twists and a tremendous amount of replayability.

    Nine Sols

    Hollow Knight: Silksong is dominating the metroidvania charts right now, but don’t sleep on Nine Sols. Beautifully crafted and featuring a rich hand-drawn art style, the game combines its metroidvania influences with Sekiro-inspired combat to create tense and exciting moments in every level you explore. The smooth animation combined with the responsive controls makes for a winning formula, while the “Taopunk” setting gives the game a unique look and feel.

    Ninja Gaiden 4

    When all the pieces fall together, Ninja Gaiden 4 offers an intoxicating blend of action and challenge. The first mainline entry in many years, Ninja Gaiden 4 is focused purely on gameplay and over-the-top boss fights that’ll push you to the very edge of your seat. It’s the purest lean-forward game out there, a fast-paced meat-grinder that requires your utmost concentration, but being in the zone with this game is an absolute treat once you start dishing out gruesome combos. The story and its lead protagonist are instantly forgettable, but the experience of scraping through battles against ultra-aggressive enemies and tanky bosses will stay with you long after the credits roll.

    Read our Ninja Gaiden 4 review.

    Ori series

    Both games in Moon Studios’ incredible Ori series are worth playing. Ori and the Blind Forest and its 2020 sequel Ori and the Will of the Wisps are two of the best platformers available on Xbox. Both have stunning visuals and tell emotionally gripping stories that feed off of the atmosphere and well-drawn characters. While they are similar in terms of aesthetic and feel, Ori and the Will of the Wisps is more action-oriented, whereas the Blind Forest largely focuses on platforming and exploration. The Will of the Wisps gives Ori new abilities that help them square off against daunting bosses. Both games are brilliant in their own right, and are must-play platformers on Xbox. You should play them in order to get the full emotional weight of the story.

    The Outer Worlds 2

    Obsidian Entertainment’s The Outer Worlds was introduced as a spiritual sci-fi successor to Fallout, but the studio has successfully crafted an identity for its spacefaring action-RPG. Combat has been polished up, and choices feel more meaningful than ever, but the real hook is in how you approach the game and build your own legend. Whether you’re a bumbling adventurer who fails upwards or an operative who wields sharp blades and even sharper wit, it’s all up to you to figure out who you want to be in a solar system ripped apart by factional wars and corporate takeovers.

    Read our The Outer Worlds 2 review.

    Pentiment

    One of the most unusual games on Game Pass, or anywhere, Pentiment is an adventure game set in 16th century Bavaria. As a manuscript illustrator sent to an Abbey, you’re caught up in a series of murders. The decades-spanning story explores the idea of historical narrative and how truth is recorded and remembered across generations. It’s really unlike anything else.

    Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire

    The first Pillars of Eternity was a thrilling study in old school RPG gameplay with a modern makeover, but its sequel outdoes the original in almost every way possible. A more confident follow-up that doubles down on its strengths while further refining its formula, Obsidian Entertainment’s sophomore effort is an entertaining game filled with rich writing and easily-accessible gameplay for newcomers to the genre.

    Psychonauts 2

    It’s safe to say that there’s no game like Psychonauts 2 on the market, as Double Fine’s return to the cult-classic world of Razputin Aquato and the titular psychic peacekeeping agency is an absolute mind-blast of imaginative design. Fun to play and packing an emotional wallop with its exploration of several characters and a deep dive into their respective psyches, Psychonauts 2 is both a hilarious and heartfelt effort.

    A Plague Tale: Requiem

    The first Plague Tale was an unexpected hit from a relatively small developer punching above its weight. The sequel could have expanded its scope, but instead, Asobo Studio kept its narrative tightly focused on telling a human story set in an alternative French history. Though the rat-controlling mechanics have been expanded, the story is still concerned primarily with the family dynamics between Hugo and his protective older sister, Amicia. It’s also a downright beautiful game, with lush environments that rival those from the biggest AAA studios.

    Rematch

    Football fans don’t have much to choose from in the genre, thanks to EA dominating the scene with its annual EA Sports FC series. But in 2025, Sifu developer Sloclap hit the field with a game that felt and played like the polar opposite of EA’s franchise. A refreshing skill-based approach to football, Rematch keeps things simple, engaging, and exciting with every footie match. Fun to learn and satisfying to master, recent improvements have addressed the rougher parts of the game, transforming it into a thrilling spectacle of five-a-side football.

    Read our Rematch review.

    Resident Evil Village

    Using the momentum from Resident Evil 7 to push the franchise to gory new heights, 2021’s Resident Evil Village continues the terrifying journey of protagonist Ethan Winters. Venturing into a mysterious European village teeming with all manner of new bioweapon horrors, Resident Evil Village plays like a highlight reel of the series with its grotesque monster designs, action-packed horror gameplay, and suspense-fueled design that keeps you on the edge of your seat at all times.

    Read our Resident Evil Village review.

    The Rogue Prince of Persia

    It’s a great time to be a Prince of Persia fan, as not only have we gotten the superb metroidvania The Lost Crown, but also Evil Empire’s fun roguelike The Rogue Prince of Persia. After spending several months in Steam Early Access, the full game is a terrific love-letter to classic Prince of Persia action, mixing the influences of the older platforming games with plenty of Dead Cells DNA. Where The Rogue Prince of Persia sets itself apart is in its movement and storytelling, as the game is at its best when you’re using parkour to smoothly dodge traps and acrobatic combat to weave between enemies as you build up strength for a glorious run.

    Sea of Thieves

    A live-service game that’s not all about the shooting, Sea of Thieves is Rare’s quirky take on a pirate simulator. It’s gone through a lot of iterations since it was first released in 2018, so nowadays it’s a full-fledged pirate simulator. You can crew your ship and sail the high seas, plunder other ships, find hidden treasure, and even deal with otherworldly pirate ghosts.

    Slay the Spire

    Slay the Spire marries deck-building with roguelike systems to create one of the best indies in recent years. Throughout your journey up the Spire, you square off against monsters, uncover treasures, and expand your deck of cards. Slay the Spire’s card-based combat is easy to get the hang of but requires trial and error to find success. While you have to start back at the beginning each time you die, you gradually earn new cards, which help you advance further the next time. It’s an intoxicating loop that makes it easy to want to try “one more time” before putting down the controller. Each of Slay the Spire’s four playable characters have unique decks, adding a ton of incentive to brave the Spire for subsequent runs after the credits roll.

    South of Midnight

    Compulsion Games has repeatedly designed incredible worlds that are rich in atmosphere and intrigue, and South of Midnight is no exception. Set in the American Deep South and inspired by the myths told by the people who live there, South of Midnight encapsulates the sights, sounds, and culture of a place rarely explored in video games and doesn’t shy away from delving into the community’s hardships and traumas to weave together a fantastical and oftentimes chilling gothic horror tale. The whole experience is brought to life with superb voice acting and a poignant soundtrack, transforming otherwise ordinary moments of combat and platforming into a cinematic experience that’s well-worth experiencing.

    Read our South of Midnight review.

    Star Wars Outlaws

    Star Wars Outlaws might be a one-and-done game, but Ubisoft’s dive into the seedier underbelly of that famous sci-fi franchise is a thrill ride. Ditching lightsabers for blasters and a shoot-first attitude, Outlaws succeeds in making you feel like a scoundrel as you explore planets, double-cross crime cartels regularly, and do your best to stay off the radar of the Galactic Empire and its seemingly limitless supply of Stormtroopers. Come for the interstellar adventure and stay for the high-stakes Sabacc table in this open-world gem.

    Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3+4

    What’s old is new again, as the best Tony Hawk games are kick-flipping their way back into relevance. While we’re still not sold on the changes made to THPS4 in this two-for-one special, there’s no denying that the subtle changes under the hood and the new coat have paint have helped to successfully bring the series into the modern age of gaming. There’s also a healthy amount of new content here that doesn’t detract from the nostalgic appeal of these games, making it a must-play for veterans and newcomers alike.

    Tunic, the long-awaited adventure starring a fox with a sword, is more than just a great Zelda-like. While it harks back to old-school Zelda games in terms of not guiding players toward the objectives, Tunic has its own approach to creating mystery and intrigue. All throughout the world you’ll find pages of an instruction manual–really does look like one that would’ve been packaged with a game in the early ’90s–that you have to piece together to learn about the world around you. It does a wonderful job replicating the thrill of discovery found in early Zelda games. Tunic is much harder than Zelda games from a combat perspective, but overcoming each challenge feels like a great triumph. Plus, any combat pains you may have are made worthwhile by gorgeous world that is a joy to explore.

    Wheel World

    When it comes to gaming, there’s nothing in the rulebook that says a cycling game can’t cover topics like the apocalypse and ghosts. Wheel World is a prime example of this, as developer Messhof’s delightful tour across a colorful world features multiple elements that mesh together well, like gears on an obscenely priced bicycle. Not only does the cycling feel great, but you’re given a chance to pedal your way through gorgeous realms with it, ignite your competitive spirit, and trick it out before you save the world from total ruin.

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition

    A decade later, CD Projekt Red’s The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is still considered to be one of the greatest video games of all time. You can find out for yourself why it remains critically acclaimed to this day, as the dark fantasy adventure sees Geralt of Rivia embark on a sweeping quest to find his daughter. The Complete Edition also includes the two expansions and plenty of DLC, more than enough content to keep you occupied in the Continent for several weeks.
