UPDATE 11/19: It has since been clarified by the developer that while it is in "active discussions" with Microsoft and that Game Pass is "one of the options" on the table, nothing has actually been finalized yet. Therefore, Xbox Game Pass subscribers can't count on Project TH being a day one Xbox Game Pass game just yet.

Original story follows.

Currently, we are in active discussions with Microsoft regarding platform deals, and we are also receiving offers from several other platforms and publishers. While Gamepass Day 1 is one of the options, we want to make it clear that nothing has been finalized as of now.

Project TH has just been confirmed as the latest Day One title coming to Xbox Game Pass. Korean developer EVR Studio’s AAA debut will bring gamers an intriguing vision of near-future Korea when it arrives on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

From the latest installments of classic Xbox franchises like Halo Infinite to more recent Microsoft exclusives such as Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2, Xbox Game Pass has allowed subscribers to play dozens of fantastic Xbox and PC games from launch. Following Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard, even massive multi-platform franchises can be found on Xbox’s subscription service, including Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, which is due for a huge update on November 14.

Xbox Game Pass Confirms Arrival of Beloved Trilogy

Xbox Game Pass confirms the arrival of a widely beloved trilogy that some vocal fans have been requesting for over a year by now.

Another upcoming game has just been added to this vast library of Xbox Game Pass Day One releases. Described by EVR Studio as a “third-person interactive adventure game,” Project TH appears to be an action-packed stealth shooter with stunning graphics powered by Unreal Engine 5. First revealed in 2022, the game’s mix of tactical stealth infiltration, visceral hand-to-hand combat, and all-out trigger-friendly setpieces has invoked comparisons with Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell and Metal Gear Solid 5. Players will follow the intertwining story revolving around a North Korean military exchange soldier, a K-Pop star caught up in a conspiracy accused of mass-scale brainwashing, and a mysterious terrorist known as “ID: Ghost.”

Project TH Promises a Thrilling Portrait of a Near-Future Unified Korea

Project TH is EVR Studio’s first AAA foray into the gaming world. Made up of various industry professionals in gaming, photography, and Hollywood-level VFX, the digital content development studio specializes in using state-of-the-art facial mapping and digital human scanning technology to create real-time interactive media and VR projects. This expertise will reveal itself in the game’s intricately detailed character models, who will be played by famous South Korean actors including Lee Hong-nae and Heo Sung-tae.

Equally intriguing as the technology behind the scenes is the game’s setting. Project TH takes place in a near-future unified Korea based on the world of Mudang by Korean webtoon creator Seog-Jung-hyun. The “TH” in the game’s title is an abbreviation for “Two-Hearts,” symbolizing the two separate halves of the newly joined but still politically and ideologically divided nation. Unfortunately for fans who can’t wait to dive into this mysterious and gritty world, no official release dates have been confirmed, although Project TH will be coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Until then, Xbox gamers can enjoy other notable upcoming Xbox Game Pass Day One releases including Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, all releasing before the end of 2024.
