Outriders coming to Xbox Game Pass on day one!

Well, it’s been confirmed, folks. Outriders is officially coming to Xbox Game Pass on launch day for consoles and xCloud! Let’s talk about it!

Outriders on Game Pass

In an official announcement from Xbox Community Lead, Megan Spurr, she states:

“Starting April 1 (not an April Fool’s joke, I assure you), Xbox Game Pass for Console and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can jump into this true genre-hybrid from Square Enix, which combines brutal combat with deep RPG systems. Outriders is set in the distant future where players attempt to colonize a planet that they believe to be a new home for humanity. Turns out, the planet doesn’t want them there. Oops. A mysterious storm called the Anomaly burnt out all the tech that’s more advanced than a lightbulb, hyper-evolved the wildlife into ferocious monsters, and colonization efforts broke down into a bitter war of attrition for the last remaining resources available to humanity.”

This is fantastic news for Outriders and Xbox fans alike as it will be much easier to access the game if you plan on playing on an Xbox console or through Xbox’s newest cloud streaming service, xCloud.

We’re sure that many of those who have pre-ordered the game on Xbox are thrilled that they can now cancel their pre-order and play the game for “free” (except for the cost of Game Pass, of course) on day one!
