With Xbox Game Pass there\u2019s no shortage of games for you to fall in love with this Valentine\u2019s Day. From sailing to driving to jumping, even combine harvesting, there\u2019s bound to be room in your heart for a few of these titles. We\u2019ve highlighted some of our Xbox Game Pass favorites that we think you\u2019ll fall in love with, too. We\u2019d love to hear what Xbox Game Pass titles you love most by reaching out to us on Xbox Game Pass Twitter<\/a> and Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Gears of War 4<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

There are countless reasons to love Gears of War 4<\/em>: amazing characters, non-stop action, and awesome Lancers. But one of the reasons it really makes our heart skip a beat is the couch multiplayer you can experience with a loved one by your side. Whether it\u2019s co-op or competitive multiplayer, you can have each other\u2019s backs or go after each other for bragging rights. It\u2019s also a great time to jump on board as we get ready to deepen our relationship with Gears 5<\/em> \u2013 which will launch with Xbox Game Pass the same day it\u2019s available on Xbox One and Windows 10 later this year.<\/p>\n

Human Fall Flat<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Another couch co-op crowd-pleaser that\u2019s best played with a group of friends as you wobble and tumble in physics-based puzzle mayhem. But what really makes us fall (pun intended) for Human: Fall Flat<\/em> are its incredibly adorable character designs, which when seen tumbling, falling, splatting, flying through the air also cause us to break into gut-busting laugher at their expense. And laughter, they say, is the quickest way to someone\u2019s heart.<\/p>\n

Laser League<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

You know that squiggly feeling you get in your stomach at the sight of a certain special someone? Yeah, well, that\u2019s the feeling you get after being shot by laser. And now you\u2019re out of the match and your team is falling behind. You went ahead and got distracted by that attractive, neon-blue clad opponent and you let your guard down for a fraction of a second. And in a game where split-second decisions are key, you blew it. Where were we\u2026 oh, yes. Laser League<\/em> is great. You should play it.<\/p>\n

Portal Knights<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

There are few things we love more than joining friends to embark on an action RPG adventure full of crafting, epic enemies, and massive new worlds. Which is a big reason for our love for Portal Knights<\/em>, which offers near endless adventure thanks to its randomly generated 3D sandbox worlds. Best of all, these adventures can be had with some couch co-op or online with up to four players. Perfect for a night out on the medieval town.<\/p>\n

Mortal Kombat X<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Get over here and warm up that sub-zero heart of yours with the epic Mortal Kombat X<\/em>. As one of the longest-running fighting game franchises, this series continues to impress and innovate causing us to fall in love with it, time and time again. And with Mortal Kombat 11<\/em> on the horizon, now\u2019s the best time to dust off those controllers and renew some of your deepest rivalries, er, we mean vows. Toasty!<\/p>\n

Rocket League<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

If you and your special someone are looking for one of the best pick-up-and-play games available today, you can do little wrong \u00a0by booting up some Rocket League<\/em> and letting those sparks fly. And by sparks we mean the giant soccer balls you\u2019re \u201ckicking\u201d in net, and by flying we mean your sweet rides as they tumble through the air. Seriously, it\u2019s great. Go play it together.<\/em><\/p>\n

Spintires: Mudrunner<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

On the surface, this physics-based driving game has all the ingredients for one amazing off-road experience as you wrestle these epic vehicles across some of the harshest terrain. But underneath all of this is a trust exercise, with only your compass and map to help guide you to safety \u2013 something that will always have your back and support you if you happen to lose your way. Yeah, we might be overthinking the whole giant trucks in the mud bit, but it\u2019s that simplicity that makes us appreciate the life lessons this game is teaching us.<\/p>\n

Forza Horizon 4<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

One of the many reasons we love Forza Horizon 4<\/em> is that it lets us run free across a beautiful historic Britain. Perfect for those romances that let the two of you test your love at a brisk 200mph across winding roads all season(s) long. Or, if you\u2019re still looking for someone special this Valentine\u2019s Day, you never know who you\u2019ll meet in the game\u2019s massive, shared open world.<\/p>\n

Sea of Thieves<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Perhaps the perfect test of a relationship is a bold ocean voyage into the unknown. So, hop online with your loved one(s) and work in harmony, surviving storms, sharks and skeleton crews to forge your very own pirate legend. Or just take a ship built for two and seek out a secluded island getaway\u2026 with a shovel in hand and an unpatched eye trained to catch the gleam of half-buried treasure.<\/p>\n
