MachineGamesIndiana Jones will not make it to Game Pass Standard[/caption] People can no longer purchase Game Pass for Console subscriptions and once their current membership runs out, they’ll have to either change to Standard or upgrade to Ultimate. Fans are furious about the change, as console players will lose access to more than 40 recent releases. Not only does the list of games include releases from the last 12 months but some older big titles like Diablo 4 are also on the chopping block. Other big games, like Starfield, Hellblade 2, Kunitsu-gami, Persona 3 Reload, and Valorant, will also be leaving. Xbox has said that these releases could be added to the Standard plan eventually, but that it will likely be more than 12 months later.
