That Deathloop will come to Xbox is something that we all have assumed: exactly one year has passed since its launch on PC and PS5, and the console exclusivity agreement with PlayStation must be about to expire. The idea was always that all Bethesda games would end up arriving on Microsoft consoles and, as seen, the hare seems to have jumped ahead of time.
As they have been able to capture reddit users, Arkane’s shooter has appeared in one of the Xbox console store’s pop-up windows to promote pre-orders of the game itself. Will we see it in the Game Pass?
In a way, it’s natural to assume that Deathloop will reinforce the idea that games published from Xbox Game Studios will come to Game Pass at launch. Arkane and by extension Bethesda are a centerpiece of Microsoft’s video game division. And we can’t ignore the fact that a new batch of games is coming to Game Pass tomorrow, including the equally brutal shooter Metal Hellsinger.
The fact that a 90-minute event dedicated to id@Xbox is taking place today and Xbox having its own conference tomorrow, Thursday, at the Tokyo Game Show makes us even more optimistic about an imminent announcement. And the excellence of his proposal for shots and temporary loops is a reason for great celebration.
The other reality is that at the time of writing these lines everything is up in the air. Beyond fleetingly showing the game to promote its reservation, which has been conveniently immortalized on the internet, if we look at the Microsoft store filtering by Arkane We will not see trace of the game. At least for now.
Deathloop It is one of the last great bombings of Bethesda and one of the most interesting temporary exclusivities of PS5, although not the only one. We expect that in the future Ghostwire Tokyo will also end up appearing on Xbox and Game Pass. When will it be official? You will have to wait for the right moment. The good news is that Xbox has two great opportunities to shine very soon.
