As the gaming community eagerly awaits the release of Remnant 2, there’s a burning question on everyone’s mind: Will Remnant 2 be available on Xbox Game Pass at launch? Unfortunately, we have to be the ones to deliver the disappointing news – Remnant 2 will not be part of the Xbox Game Pass lineup upon its release.
Remnant 2, the much-anticipated sequel, is set to make its grand entrance on July 22 for Ultimate Edition owners, and July 25 for Standard and Deluxe Edition owners. Gamers across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S platforms will be able to dive into the action, provided they’re ready to part with their cash.
The Xbox Game Pass, a popular subscription service among gamers for its cost-saving benefits, will not feature Remnant 2 at launch. This news comes as a letdown for many who were hoping to enjoy the new game through this service. Gunfire Games and publisher Gearbox Publishing have not hinted at the game’s availability on Xbox Game Pass, so it’s best not to anticipate its immediate availability on the platform.
However, it’s important to note that the absence of Remnant 2 on Xbox Game Pass at launch doesn’t necessarily mean it will never make its way to the service. The predecessor, Remnant: From the Ashes, was part of the Xbox Game Pass for a considerable period before being removed in May 2022, likely due to the end of a contract. This previous association with Xbox Game Pass leaves room for speculation that Remnant 2 might follow suit after some time post-launch.
For those still keen on playing Remnant 2 but looking for a cheaper alternative to its retail price, options are somewhat limited. Subscribers to Humble Choice can also get the game for a few bucks cheaper on the Humble Store, depending on the edition they choose. While these savings might not be as substantial as those offered by services like Game Pass, they’re better than nothing.
