Yeah, to our knowledge Xbox never actually made that lowball offer to Larian, that document that came out from the ABK court case with estimated amounts of money to get Games that Xbox wanted to see on Gamepass, onto Gamepass, was just that, estimates. We have no clue if Xbox actually offered that lowball amount, or if they increased their offer before making it to Larian, or if they even made a day one Gamepass offer to Larian at all.

Considering the document was years old, before anyone, even Larian themselves, had the slightest inkling of how popular BG3 would become on launch, it's a safe bet that Xbox would have offered alot more in 2023 to get it onto Gamepass. Like I said above, it would certainly be one of the top 5 most expensive 3rd party Gamepass deals in 2023, possibly even the most expensive (only the GTA 5 deal from earlier this year stands a chance of being more expensive imo).
