Which is not something I’m going to do personally, but the information may benefit someone. I’m still torn between getting it on Steam or just Game Pass.

I can’t seem to find whether it will be Play Anywhere.

    Hmm, I don’t have vacations until the 11th so other than being able to get it before the weekend, having it 5 days earlier isn’t that big a deal.

    Being able to get the story expansion at presumably a cheaper price is worth it though, as I’m guessing they won’t add this to Game Pass?

      Back when they expanded to Game Pass Ultimate it used to include DLC, it no longer appears to include Ultimate Editions that it used to, it is very unlikely to include any DLC at all.

        Skyrim has all the DLC, but only the Special Edition not the Anniversary Edition. Fallout 4 does not have the DLC. So I expect it won’t have the DLC.

        I’d be tempted just to buy the game itself to have it separate from Game Pass but realistically as long as I have my Xbox I’ll probably keep my Game Pass subscription and $60 is a lot less than $170 haha…

            The GOTY edition does include all of the DLC though? I bought it on sale a few days ago as I never finished F4 and Far Harbour had really good reviews.

                Yeah, but I think they could still put it in Game Pass if they wanted to. I think in general Game Pass doesn’t include the DLC. I actually bought the DLC for Escape Academy as it was so fun so I guess it helps as a revenue stream for smaller games that without Game Pass probably wouldn’t get much exposure.

        I mean the future Story Pack expansion that is mentioned in the Deluxe Edition. Given they are already selling it, it doesn’t seem so speculative.

          Speculations are:
          Is the game good?
          Is the game playable?
          Is the game gonna be delayed?
          Is the dlc actually gonna come?
          When? Delayed?
          At what price?
          What scope will it have?
          Will it be worth it?
          Will the story be good enough that you want more of it?

          It seems incredibly silly to me to pre purchase a game that you can play at no additional cost anyway if you have GP solely on the hypothesis of maybe saving money on a dlc that will most likely cost significantly less than the base game.

          You’ll save money on the dlc you know next to nothing about by paying a lot more on the base game.

          Its your money but the idea is absurd to me.
