The Confusion Unraveled

The confusion began when Hoyoverse announced the arrival of Genshin Impact on Xbox Series X/S and Game Pass. Initially, the game’s Xbox store page mentioned that “Online multiplayer on console requires Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or Xbox Game Pass Core (sold separately).” This raised concerns among players who are used to free-to-play games like Fortnite on the platform.
