Everyone has their eyes on Starfield. Bethesda and Microsoft created enormous hype behind the game, and with the two merging, many wondered whether the game would be available on Xbox Game Pass.
It’s no secret Microsoft has expanded in recent years, acquiring a plethora of studios, and there’s no doubt that Bethesda is the crown jewel of its acquisitions so far. With the studio responsible for such gaming giants as The Elder Scrolls and Fallout franchises, the deal has been valuable for Xbox Game Pass owners. Bethesda’s games are already on the subscription, so will Starfield follow suit?
