In recent weeks, Xbox Game Pass has been at the center of controversy following the recent price increase that, although it has improved some aspects of the service, has generated discontent among its users. This dissatisfaction has intensified with the disappointing absence of the expected titles: Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition and Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition, which were supposed to arrive in the PC Game Pass catalog on October 9.
At Microsoft, going for grapes
Despite being promised dates by Microsoft, PC players have been unable to access these iconic RPGs. On the Xbox Game Pass subreddit, several users have expressed their frustration, indicating that the games simply do not appear in the PC Game Pass app or in the store. “If you go to the store page, it basically doesn’t exist,” commented one player, reflecting the general confusion. This type of situation contrasts with the previous experience when both titles were available on console and through the cloud.
Game Pass Ultimate users can play through the cloud, but PC Game Pass subscribers are still waiting for a solution. This lack of communication from Microsoft has increased frustration, especially after the price hike that was expected to bring improvements to the service. Without an official clarification regarding the absence of these games, the community remains hopeful, but increasingly disillusioned.
In a broader context, the failure to meet deadlines has led some to question the value of the subscription. While a wider range of titles is expected to arrive in the coming months, the discomfort caused by errors and the lack of promised titles in Game Pass could have a significant impact on user loyalty.
