The Xbox Summer Spotlight 2021 has now begun and will run for the next six weeks until September 6th, which will bring weekly game releases and a Microsoft Rewards bonus.
We’re nearing the end of July and the heat is only just beginning to ramp up, even more so now that the Xbox Summer Spotlight is live. The Spotlight brings us six weeks of deals, game releases, and reward opportunities, which will include a bonus for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members. By spending $50/£35 on Summer Spotlight games between now and September 6th you’ll be given 5000 Microsoft Rewards points and a $5/£4 gift card — $10/£8 if you’re an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscriber.
This week’s game in the Spotlight is Death’s Door, which has been well received by many players since its release last week. You’ll take on the role of a Crow, reaping the souls of the dead. But when a soul you’re supposed to collect is stolen, you embark on a journey through a realm without death… a realm where creatures grow into remarkably powerful beings.
Four new games that released this week (bar Splitgate as its full launch has been delayed) are included in the Xbox Summer Spotlight. Cris Tales, Splitgate, Samurai Warriors 5, and Last Stop are all eligible for the Spotlight bonus, along with the following titles:
