It’s also unclear exactly how longOutriderswill be on Xbox Game Pass, so anyone interested in playing through the game without paying full price should definitely make it a point to check it out come April 1.
Outriders, for the uninitiated, is a 3-player co-op RPG shooter that plays like a live service looter shooter without the actual live service elements.Outridersis meant to be a complete experienceright when it launches on April 1, with players not having to wait for post-launch updates or season passes to get access to new content. However, ifOutridersis successful, then People Can Fly has expressed interest in releasing some post-launch content for the game. Its availability on Xbox Game Pass should mean that a lot more people have access to it at launch, so chances seem good that post-launch content will be on the way in some capacity.
