There are no plans to support “Xbox Game Pass”

This was carried out by overseas media IGN.Interview (link in English, spoiler alert)This was revealed by Swen Vincke, founder of Larian Studios and director of this work. In response to the question, “How much did Xbox offer to include this game in Game Pass?” Vincke replied, “We had no intention of releasing it on Game Pass from the beginning, and we have no plans to do so in the future.” .

He also prefaced this by saying that this question is extremely sensitive, and explained that since we created a huge game with a beginning, middle, and end, we believe there needs to be a fair compensation. There are no microtransactions in this game, so it should just exist as a huge game where you can get everything just by purchasing it, which makes it possible to create the next game.
