Microsoft added the remastered Spyro trilogy to Game Pass earlier in November, letting subscribers play as the iconic purple dragon. Now, Microsoft is taking subscribers back to the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone in the sequel to the award-winning Stalker.

Yes, it's been confirmed that Stalker 2 will be available on Xbox Game Pass – more specifically, the sequel will be available to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers on launch day (20th November 2024).

Several more games are coming to various tiers of Xbox Game Pass in the weeks ahead, including STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl.

Stalker 2 will be launched worldwide on November 20, 2024. As an Xbox exclusive, the title will only be available for Xbox Series X/S and PC gamers, not on PlayStation 5. The game is already available for pre-order on the Epic Games Store, Steam Store, Microsoft Store, and GOG Store.

According to Windows Central, Stalker 2 sets the controller's gamepad deadzones to zero on Xbox. As a result, this means that even the slightest nudge on the controller's stick will move the player while being in the game.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate adds a highly anticipated day-one open-world game just as two other titles make their way to XGP Standard.

The RPG has had a lengthy journey to get here too, with a sequel first being announced in 2010. That version was eventually cancelled before reemerging in 2018 for an expected release in 2022. Sadly though,

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl launched on November 20 after years of development, and it seems to be off to a solid start. Developer GSC Game World announced that the first-person survival game has cleared 1 million copies sold across PC and Xbox, but that doesn't tell the entire story of how many people have played it.
