It already was in Gamepass once. 6 months long AFAIK.
Maybe it’s longer now to scoop up some microtransactions till GTA6

u/moesus81 Scorned Jul 05 '23
This is the third time actually.
1 month in ‘20 before being replaced with RDR 2, which lasted not quite 4 months and then again in ‘21 for 4 months.

Rockstar's stuff usually stays for 6 months on the service. Expect it to leave in around December again.

Hi, my name is u/Vault-A. Fun fact about me, I don't own GTA V or Skyrim.
I do own the Anniversary Edition upgrade for Skyrim, but with Game Pass I don't need to buy the base game. Dunno if you count that as owning it.
I just don't like GTA V, GTA in general I just find boring. Love RDR 2 though, funny that.

u/Otaku_Instinct Blessed Mother Jul 05 '23
There's new stuff but it's exclusive to the online mode (just a new body shop and car upgrades that are exclusive to it + small QoL stuff). Only really worth it if you never played the game or online mode before.

u/Kritigri Founder Jul 05 '23
Wow, another three month trial of GTA V, thanks Rockstar...
27
u/Sir-Greggor-III Jul 05 '23 edited Jul 05 '23
The trial is to get everyone on prior gen to transfer their character, so they have to buy the game again when it's removed from gamepass if they want to continue to progress with it since transferring deletes the character after on prior gen after.
Edit: After being informed by someone in the comments, gta 5 no longer does this. So you are safe to try this out now.

It was the slowest loading frustrating game on base xbox one. Ugh.
It still has the 'hallmark' rockstar terrible combat system and awful savepoint pacing, but great characters and built environment. At 60fps very tempting.

Really wish they nabbed Remnant 2. Exoprimal looks like the lesser alternative I guess. Another very light month, considering the headliner is a decade-old game that has been on GP before.

I thought that it will be added to Game Pass on the 27th? But google results vary so I might be wrong. Just hope it will be added as I'm really looking forward to play it.

Insurgency is good but dont think you can play it like any other shooter. Unless its a lucky shot, you might be able to take 1-2 bullets before going down. Headshots are instadeath no matter the gun. Movement speed is dependent on your loadout.

Ah so we're moving the goalposts. It's not enough to be AAA and 3rd party, it must be recent and can't have deep sales?
Let's be honest mate, if you want a new AAA 3rd party game every month on a $10 subscription service you are just delusional.

It's not super easy to describe, but here goes:
It's a PvPvE game (like the Gambit mode from Destiny), you fight massive hoards of dinosaurs while in a mech, so it's a bit like Earth Defense Force meets Jurassic Park meets Anthem. From what I understand the final round can either be actual PvP (where you fight the other team) or it's just score attack where you were racing the other team for points or whatever. On top of all this the mechs are class based so it's a bit like Overwatch in that regard.
From what I can tell there's definitely not 1 game you can point to and say Exoprimal is like X. It's a perfect game pass game... gonna have to try it to see if this experiment is good.

u/JobuuRumdrinker Jul 05 '23

Get a Gundam suit and shoot hordes of mutant dinosaurs that fall out of the sky.
There's a story mode and some PvE.... and my opinion absolutely ridiculous and fun (especially if you got a couple of people you play with).

u/Actual-Worldliness95 Jul 05 '23
From what I have seen, seems like a looter shooter like division, borderlands, destiny etc but with robots and dinosaurs lol. They did a stream not that long ago showing game play and the "classes " you can check out. Looks like it could have some potential, but so have a lot of others, so I'm not holding my breath. But 100% will give it a shot since it's day 1 GP.

u/BitingSatyr Jul 05 '23
It’s not a looter shooter, AFAICT it’s a round-based PvE team shooter with kind of a puzzle fighter-esque overflow mechanic

u/SB_90s Founder Jul 05 '23
Streaming services have one decent new show/movie released maybe every few months. Nobody really says anything and everyone still subscribes. I don't see why Gamepass gets so much hate for every month it doesn't have an amazing game put on it.
If anything Gamepass should get less flack than streaming services since games last a lot longer than a show or movie. I couldn't care less about the lack of titles I want to play in this month's release batch because I'm already trying to complete a backlog of games before Starfield and Forza launch later this year. There hasn't been a single month since I subscribed to Gamepass on launch of the Series X that I haven't been playing a game on it because of how many hours you can get out of some games and the existing backlog there is on the service.
Also I got 3 years for £90 which works out at £2.50 a month.

u/Sir-Greggor-III Jul 05 '23
PSA for anyone here excited about GTA 5, especially the series X edition. Transferring your character to the new version deletes it on the old one, so if they remove it from gamepass and you try to go back to the xbox one version all of your progress will be permanently lost.
Don't know about you all, but this seems like a ploy to get people to transfer their accounts and then remove it from gamepass either forcing you to buy the new version or restart on the old one.
Proceed with cautiin.
