Is Black Desert Out on Xbox & PC Game Pass?

Black Desert is a sandbox-oriented fantasy MMORPG developed by Korean studio Pearl Abyss. Originally released for Microsoft Windows in 2015, this online role-playing game offers a world where players can explore, battle, and engage in a rich and dynamic fantasy setting. But is it coming out on Game Pass?

Here’s all you need to know about whether or not Black Desert is out on PC and Xbox Game Pass.

Is Black Desert on Xbox Game Pass?

No, Black Desert is not out on Xbox Game Pass.

This is one game that has been on and off Game Pass multiple times. The game left Game Pass in 2020 and came back to the subscription service later. Recently, Black Desert was removed from Game Pass in September 2023 with the addition of new games. The reason for this is unknown as the developers or publishers have made no official announcements about the same. Hence, players cannot currently play Black Desert with Xbox Game Pass. If you own the game, online multiplayer requires an Xbox Game Pass or Game Pass Ultimate subscription to play.

Is Black Desert on PC Game Pass?

No, Black Desert is not out on PC Game Pass.

Just like the Xbox Game Pass, Black Desert has been on and off PC Game Pass multiple times. The game was taken off PC Game Pass as well in September 2023. Any DLCs purchased by the player with the Game Pass version of the game will not work. The player will have to purchase the game from the Microsoft Store to play the additional content. The developers and publishers have made no announcements about when the game might possibly come back to Game Pass. Also, the game recently moved to the Game Pass competitor PS Plus. Hence, players should not expect it to come back to PC Game Pass anytime soon.

Can you play Black Desert via Game Pass?

Unfortunately, you cannot play Black Desert via Xbox or PC Game Pass. This is because, in September 2023, Black Desert left Game Pass and joined PS Plus. Hence, PC and Xbox players can no longer take advantage of the game being on Game Pass. Players can play the game on PC and Xbox One by purchasing their preferred edition of the game from the respective online store.

The game’s description reads:

“Black Desert is a game that tests the limitations of MMORPG by implementing remastered graphics and audio. Enjoy exciting combat and siege, exploration, trading, fishing, training, alchemy, cooking, gathering, hunting, and more in the vast open world.”
