You won't see it on Game Pass games, but if you go to the Store, you can install it from there. Also, don't switch your profiles region, just your console as you won't be able to switch back for 3 months, according to comments references a reddit, probably referencing official stuff.
Well you can unless you live in AUS and are waiting for it to be on the game Pass menu..... Clearly NOT " on release" as they have continuously pushed. This was the only real reason for me to get interested in Game Pass this month as opposed to holding off on it :(
So your issue being that there are region release times and you think that means the game is CLEARLY NOT being released on game pass "on release". The day it was released I was able to download it and play on game pass... I see that myself as clearly released on game pass same day as release.
I just experienced one of the coolest multiplayer moment with this game !
- sailed alone to a random island - found a treasure which makes my whole screen wobbles (my character drunk) whenever I pick it up - crashed my ship into another island while trying to get back to an outpost to sell the treasure - grabbed the treasure from the sinking ship and wondered around the island aimlessly - saw someone else's ship coming at night, swam to his ship and hijacked it in the dark - once on ship, immediately uses mic to ask him not to kill me and pleaded for help - he brought me back to an outpost and I thanked him for his kindness and we added each other on Xbox Live
Just read the review in progress on IGN and it's not sounding to good. With all being said, the hate is justifiable. MS has lost its identity long ago with all of its products relying mostly on copying it's competitors to stay relevant rather than to innovate, take risks and to follow it's own path.
MS went the right direction with the 360, even with the whole rrod fiasco winning over most of the gaming world. They then back tracked drastically with the OG Xbox One and Kinect 2.0, copying the Wii and it's identity rather than continuing to do it's own thing, thus losing customers' trust and respect. So even though SoT is oozing with unique quality, life and personality, it would be more suited on a Nintendo console than a Xbox console, one who's forgot who or what it is or who it is actually intended for.
As a business selling products, always know your why.
@Cyborgg I just read the ign preview and it sounded pretty positive to me. why don't you guys try it out. you could even try it on pc seeing as how you hate xbox so much
Trying it now.
Yeah this works. I have game pass too. Just went to the store page after and installing now.
