Will Revenge of the Savage Planet be available on Xbox Game Pass?
Image via Raccoon Logic. After being released on May 8, 2025, Revenge of the Savage Planet has attracted all the fans towards itself. Serving as a sequel to the 2020 release, Journey of the Savage Planet , this Raccoon Logic title emphasises co-op and replaces the first-person architecture of its predecessor with a tighter third-person viewpoint in a sci-fi world. This game is a treat for everyone as this is available on all kinds of popular platforms - Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. However, is it going to be available on the Xbox Game Pass? Let's explore the answer. Is Revenge of the Savage Planet available on Xbox Game Pass? Revenge of the Savage Planet Launch Trailer by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Get Exclusive Offers on 1 & 2 BHK Homes @Dosti™ Nest Dosti Realty Learn More Undo The answer is 'YES.' Revenge of the Savage Planet is available on Xbox Game Pass. Not only that, this was a day-one Xbox Game Pass launch, that means it has been available on the popular subscription service from the game's release date itself. There are a total of two editions for the game: Standard Edition and Cosmic Hoarder Edition , which are priced at $35.99 and $44.99 respectively. However, as the game is available on Xbox Game Pass, subscribers will be able to enjoy this title without spending a single penny for this title. Keep in mind, only the Standard edition is available on Game Pass, not the Cosmic Hoarder Edition, which grants several headstarts like cosmetics, early access, additional quests, rewards, and many more. Also it's important to remember that Revenge of the Savage Planet is only available for the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or the Game Pass PC subscribers, as it's not available for Game Pass Core and Game Pass Standard. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Xbox Game Pass for PC cost $19.99 and $11.99 respectively, which is a way lesser than the actual price of even the base game. Now, those who don't want to spend a single penny just for the game, can purchase the Game Pass to enjoy this game for one month. However, buying the Game Pass will allow players to play hundreds of other games as well, along with Revenge of the Savage Planet. Not only that, with the subscription plan for PC players, they can even play Xbox titles on their PCs, despite not having an Xbox console.

PC Game Pass If you're a PC gamer, PC Game Pass is still budget-friendly. It's up from $10 to $12 per month, but it still includes access to a much larger library of hundreds of PC games and access to new games on the day they go on sale. This subscription also includes an EA Play membership, which adds a whole bunch more games to your library and provides some exclusive rewards and content for select EA titles. Game Pass Standard This new tier is Microsoft's replacement for the previous Game Pass Console membership. It costs $15 per month and offers perks such as select discounts, online multiplayer and other benefits of the Console tier. It doesn't include games released on Day 1.

The gaming pass gives players access to hundreds of games, including Grand Theft Auto V, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Minecraft, with online multiplayer also available. O2 customers are able to purchase the Game Pass Ultimate for £14.99 a month and can enjoy a £1 discount off their airtime bill every month as an added perk. Games are available online from Xbox Game Studios, Bethesda Softworks, Activision Blizzard and more and can be played on a selection of smart TVs, iPhone 16, Samsung Galaxy S25 and META Quest 3 with Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta). Shoppers wanting to switch to O2 or upgrade to a new plan can choose the Game Pass Ultimate as a paid extra when completing their order online, in store or over the phone. Customers who love gaming and already have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate can still take advantage of this offer, but will need to cancel their existing subscription with Microsoft to avoid being billed twice, which may be time consuming. There is a minimum Game Pass Ultimate sign-up period of six months, and the charge will appear in customers' monthly bills from O2. The Game Pass Ultimate isn't the only perk for O2 gamers, as they can also enjoy exclusive access to Virgin Media Gamepad, the ultimate free gaming destination based at The O2 in London. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is the newest subscription service to join O2 Extra's catalogue of perks, with customers also able to get Disney+ from £4.99 per month, Prime for £8.99 per month, Cafeyn for £7.99 per month, McAfee Mobile Security Plus for £4.99 per month or McAfee Mobile Security Standard for £1 per month.

EE customers who have a monthly plan that includes Inclusive Extras can select the gaming pass, however, unlike O2, EE isn't offering a discount on airtime when the gaming pass is added to a customer's plan. New O2 customers can also save on a variety of SIM-only plans, including the 24-month Ultimate Classic Plan which costs £16 a month for the first six months, then increases to £32 a month. Alternatively, EE is currently offering its Unlimited Essentials Plus 24-month plan for £24 a month, down from £26. Sky's Unlimited data plan is £27 a month for the first 12 months, before increasing to £29 a month.
