About the Phoenix Point delay:

"We know that some of you are waiting for our release on Microsoft Xbox Game Pass for PC and the Microsoft Windows Store. We want to update you on the status of that.

The fact is we dropped the ball. We were exceedingly busy getting the game itself ready, and being inexperienced with Game Pass and the Microsoft Store, we simply had not properly prepared the groundwork to get the game released on time on these platforms. Compared to other platforms we’re on these platforms require a number of pre-requisites, from Microsoft certification to legal documentation review. While these are now mostly complete, they have given rise to a number of new delays.

Specifically, we are currently unable to make the same content available on Microsoft’s platform that is available to players on other platforms. Since we want to make sure all players have access to all versions of Phoenix Point regardless of where they choose to play, we need to get this working before we can release.

This issue was not anticipated by us and has caused unexpected delay over and above our delay waiting for certification. We had hoped to have Game Pass players, at least, up and running today, but it now seems like there will be further delays. We do not have an ETA for Phoenix Point on Game Pass or the Windows Store yet. Please know we are working as hard and as quickly as possible with our partners at Microsoft to resolve these issues and will keep you informed."

Is it me or more and more Epic store games are coming to Xbox Game Pass lately; wonder if there is a deal or something going on between those 2 :)

I kickstarted Phoenix Point and I am playing right now on Epic Store but this is sweet if it is also coming to Game Pass.

If I remember correctly Phoenix Point was actually announced to be launching into Gamepass before they signed the Epic Store deal or rather the "Not on Steam deal"

Oh I see. Never realized it :) (And I backed it).

Oh well, this is great anyway!

That came out of nowhere.

As soon as I saw the news on VGC about the X1 (and PS4) release date I knew this would come to Game Pass.



Looks like Two Point Hospital will be launching into Gamepass.

New arrivals
- Ori and the Will of Wisps (100mb placeholder)

Leaving
- Headlander

Yeah I noticed Ori (on PC there's also Gears Tactics). Won't list them here though. Might be interesting for pre-loading but at least Ori shouldn't be that big of a download.

Added Headleander to the list of games leaving. The others on there are still available even though we're past the due date.
