The game presents an exciting prison escape journey for players, promising them a captivating narrative, diverse gameplay, and the liberty to craft their own adventure. Its Early Access release reflects the developers’ commitment to refining the game, inviting the community to contribute and shape its final form. But is it coming out on Game Pass?
Here’s all you need to know about whether or not Back to the Dawn is on PC and Xbox Game Pass.
Is Back to the Dawn on Xbox Game Pass?
No, Back to the Dawn is not on Xbox Game Pass.
The game is currently only available for Microsoft Windows (PC) on Early Access. Due to the unavailability of the game’s console version, we don’t hope to see it on the Xbox Game Pass catalog, unless a formal statement regarding its console release comes out. As the game had a pretty successful Early Access release, we remain hopeful for more to come.
Is Back to the Dawn on PC Game Pass?
No, Back to the Dawn is not on PC Game Pass.
Back to the Dawn was released directly via the official game site and Steam. It was not launched on PC Game Pass. There could be many reasons for its unavailability from the Game Pass catalog, one of them being the developer’s decision to focus on direct sales or contractual disagreements.
Can you play Back to the Dawn via Game Pass?
Unfortunately, you cannot play Back to the Dawn via Xbox or PC Game Pass. This is because the game does not have a console version out yet and it was released directly for PC on Early Access, not launching via Game Pass.
