Although Shadow, which has dropped, usually means release along with its announcement, the new Xbox Game Pass arrows have also been labeled Shadow Drops by the official Xbox marketing. Since Game Pass is vital to the success of Xbox, the introduction of this practice should ensure that people often discuss new editions of game cards and theorize what could continue to join it.
