Starfield is getting closer every day. Bethesda Game Studios' highly anticipated RPG is set to debut in a matter of days, and you're likely eager to try it out as soon as it's released. If so, you might be wondering if it will be part of Xbox Game Pass and when it will arrive on the service. To keep you informed, we have all the details about Starfield on Xbox Game Pass.
Will Starfield Be on Xbox Game Pass?
An important point to note about Starfield is that it's a Microsoft release, even though it's not distributed by Xbox Game Studios. This is because in September 2020, Microsoft reached an agreement to acquire ZeniMax, the parent company of Bethesda Softworks and all its studios.
As you may know, all Microsoft exclusives are included in Xbox Game Pass from their launch day, and that won't change with Starfield. Just like it happened with Hi-Fi Rush, Ghostwire Tokyo, and Redfall, Starfield will join the Xbox Game Pass lineup on its release day.
When Will Starfield Arrive on Xbox Game Pass?
Starfield is scheduled to debut on September 6th, 2023. Therefore, it will arrive on Xbox Game Pass on that day.
It's important to note that Starfield will have a simultaneous global release. This means it will launch at 12:00 AM Greenwich Mean Time. You can see the release time in other parts of the world below:
