That's what Microsoft wanted. Me and a friend bought a month of game pass to play through Oblivion and Doom Dark Ages then unsubscribed. I doubt they're going to keep doing day 1 releases in the long run because this might be hurting their game studios.

Sorry but what you mean with day 1 releases?

[–] simple@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

They released on game pass the same day the game launched everywhere else.
