You may wonder, is Stray Blade coming to Xbox Game Pass? Stray Blade is a new action adventure game inspired by the Soulslike genre that's set to launch on April 20, which is a little over two weeks as of writing this.

So, take a look at our answer to the question - is Stray Blade coming to Xbox Game Pass?

As far as we know, Stray Blade will not be coming to Xbox Game Pass on its April 20 launch day, meaning you will need to purchase the game if you want to try it out. It's set to be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, where you can get it on Steam or the Epic Games Store.

However, despite the fact it won't be an Xbox Game Pass launch title, it may come to the service sometime in the future as part of the wave of monthly games that are frequently added. 

We'll also make sure to update this guide if the game is ever confirmed for the Game Pass subscription service. 

That's all for our detailed explainer of whether Stray Blade is coming to Xbox Game Pass on launch day, and now you know it won't be part of the service.
