Starfield On Xbox Game Pass: Available From Day 1, But Not For $1

To start with the most important information: Yes, Starfield will be playable via Xbox Game Pass! Starting on September 6, Starfield will be playable as a day 1 release. Gamers that decide to play Starfield via Game Pass will not be able to gain early access, as this is only available to those that pre-order the game's premium edition.

Microsoft's popular gaming subscription service Xbox Game Pass looks like a smooth option to play Starfield for a much cheaper price. The normal Game Pass version costs you $10.99 per month in the U.S., the Ultimate version, costs you $16.99 per month. If you've never subscribed to Game Pass before, you might even have planned to make use of the $1 free trial offer that Microsoft heavily promoted throughout the years.

Unfortunately, this is no longer possible. Just a few days ahead of the Starfield release, Microsoft has stopped the $1 Xbox Game Pass Offer to prevent having people playing it almost for free. Playing the game for the normal Game Pass prices will still be cheaper than buying it, though, at least if you're not planning to play it for several months.

So, if you're not already subscribed to Xbox Game Pass, consider checking it out and see what other games you can play with a subscription!
