It was previously reported that Resident Evil 8 appeared on the official website of the Polish Xbox, and mentioned that "there are also descriptions included in the Game Pass". Although the information was quickly removed by the authorities, evidence was left behind. Many players thought that this masterpiece might also appear in the XGP lineup, but now Microsoft has come out to clarify.
In response to XGP lineup intelligence that appeared on the above Twitter, Xbox's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb said that "this is a mistake and has now been removed." According to Hryb, "There are currently no plans to introduce Resident Evil 8 to Game Pass. ”
Shortly before the release of Resident Evil 8 last year, leaked internal documents showed an agreement between Sony and Capcom prevented the latter from releasing games on competitive subscription services like Xbox Game Pass and Stadia Pro. This particular provision should be for the year after the game's release, but it remains to be seen whether Capcom plans to bring the game to platforms like Game Pass in the near future.
Resident Evil 8 is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Stadia, and PC.
