They always told us ABK Game Pass would take a while and in fairness they straight up gave us the reason, Bethesda actually prepared months before closure to be added into Game Pass (and even after closure, it took a few months to add the rest) while ABK did basically zero work on it beforehand because they were doubting the deal would go through, Lol.

The only way I can buy this is if they are intent on basically putting everything on in one go, for whatever reason. It launching on PC+Console at the same time and that they are porting certain battle.net titles to the Xbox Store also, and again want it all done and released at the exact same time. Because if they wanted to put Activision's Xbox console titles on gamepass they could have it done in a week. Adding games to the subscription in the backend of the store is not going to be a several months long process.

I think this is likely it.

Lot of Bethesda titles were also on Game Pass in the past (before acquisition) whereas practically no ABK titles have came to Game Pass, Lol.

Notice how most the Bethesda titles were Windows PC as well, aside from New Vegas and Elder Scrolls Online.

Weirdly even today, Elder Scrolls Online isn't on PC Game Pass, Lol.

They added 10 more a month later.
