Xbox Game Pass will ultimately no longer welcome this highly anticipated game from the day of its release. Be careful, this could be a big disappointment for subscribers.
In March, Xbox Game Pass brought out the heavy artillery. Next month will have to work hard to beat it. We were still treated to major additions like Diablo 4, The Quarry, Evil West and Control Ultimate Edition. Overall there is nothing to complain about. In April we expect titles like Superhot: Mind Control Delete or Ark: Survival Ascended. But there is one more that should be added to the Microsoft services catalog on the day of its release. Ultimately, the studio backed out.
This promising game will not be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one
So who is it? We are dealing with Ereban: Shadow Legacy, which comes to us from the ovens of Baby Robot Games. Before we get to the heart of the matter, a little presentation is in order. It’s a stealth platformer in which you control Ayana, the sole survivor of a forgotten race. The young woman tries to shed light on her past, but it won’t be easy. Enemies await her on her way and she must use the power of shadows and special technology to get out of various tricky situations. Quite an interesting starting point, and we would have loved to have been able to play it on Xbox Game Pass.
This game was originally scheduled to land on Xbox Game Pass on April 10, 2024, day one. But due to a change in publisher, this is no longer an option for the studio, as it announced on Twitter. “Due to a recent change in our partnership with Raw Fury as publisher, the release of Ereban: Shadow Legacy on Xbox and day one on Game Pass has unfortunately been canceled.”
Rest assured, Ereban: Shadow Legacy remains available on Steam. It’s not like the game is canceled. Unfortunately, Xbox Game Pass is being stripped of its presence. The same goes for PC Game Pass, there is no jealousy there. However, as you may have noticed, there are still plans to release it on Microsoft’s console. Baby Robot Games will do everything not to neglect Xbox gamers. It’s a great initiative and we can’t wait to find out more. After that, you’ll have to be patient since you haven’t had anything specific to get your teeth into yet. Be continued.
