Q: Why can't I access Starfield early with my Xbox Game Pass subscription?

A: Starfield's early access, starting September 1, isn't available to Xbox Game Pass subscribers. The early access is only for those who've purchased the Premium or Constellation Editions of the game. You'll have to wait until the official release date, September 6, if you're using just the Game Pass.

Q: Is there a way for Game Pass subscribers to get early access without buying the full Premium or Constellation Edition?

A: Yes, there's a loophole. By purchasing the $35 Premium Edition upgrade, you can bypass the restriction and access the game early. However, if you unsubscribe from Game Pass later on, this upgrade becomes redundant unless you own a base copy of Starfield.

Q: What happens to my Premium Edition upgrade if I cancel my Game Pass subscription?

A: If you cancel your Game Pass subscription, the $35 Premium Edition upgrade you purchased becomes essentially worthless unless you have a base copy of Starfield. Ensure you're aware of these nuances before making any purchase decisions.
