Saints Row is an open-world action game created by Volition and published by Silver Games that takes place in a new fictional town named Santo Ileso. Players control a character simply known as The Boss and they have to put The Saints organization on the map while taking down rivals such as Los Panteros, the Idols, and Marshall Defense Industries.

As there is with every Saints Row game, there is plenty of hype for this reboot. The game will launch for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Google Stadia. With the release right around the corner, there are players wondering whether Saints Row will be available on Microsoft’s paid subscription service Xbox Game Pass at launch.

The subscription cost of Game Pass ranges from $10 to $15 and gives access to a digital catalog of over 100 games that change from time to time. The service is available for Xbox consoles, PC, and also includes some mobile games.

If Deep Silver and Microsoft do reach an agreement, Saints Row would likely arrive on Game Pass in 2023 and not this year.
