Risk of Rain Returns is a 2D action-platformer developed by Hopoo Games and Gearbox Publishing. As a remake of the original Risk of Rain game, this title propels players into the distant future where space transportation is commonplace. But is it coming out on Game Pass?
Here’s all you need to know about whether or not Risk of Rain Returns is coming to PC and Xbox Game Pass.
Is Risk of Rain Returns on Xbox Game Pass?
No, Risk of Rain Returns is not on Xbox Game Pass.
The game only came out for PC and Nintendo Switch on November 8, 2023. However, as of now, there has been no comment about the release of the game for Xbox consoles. Hence, the game will not be coming out on Xbox Game Pass until the game makes it to the platform first.
Is Risk of Rain Returns on PC Game Pass?
No, Risk of Rain Returns is not on PC Game Pass.
The game came out for PC on November 8, 2023, and did not get a day-one PC Game Pass release. In fact, there has been no news yet about the arrival of the game on PC Game Pass. As the game is made by an indie developer, they focus on direct sales for quite some time before giving the game a Game Pass release. Hence, players should not expect Risk of Rain Returns to come to PC Game Pass anytime soon.
Can you play Risk of Rain Returns via Game Pass?
Unfortunately, you cannot play Risk of Rain Returns via Xbox or PC Game Pass. This is because there has been no announcement by the developers or publishers about the arrival of the game on Game Pass. The game is also not out on Xbox consoles and is only available on PC and Nintendo Switch. Players can buy the game from Steam or the Nintendo online store to play on PC and Nintendo Switch respectively.
The game’s description reads:
“No two runs in the iconic roguelike are the same, and that has never been truer. Risk of Rain Returns bring new and enhanced Survivors, customizable Survivor abilities, fresh items, monsters, and a brand-new game mode. The game’s difficulty increases the longer you play, so prepare to fight through hordes of enemies that threaten your continued existence, collect and combine items to enhance your abilities, and scale your power to godlike levels.
Many Survivors fled the mysterious attack on your ship. Forge new paths to explore with 15 unique Survivors, each with new abilities to master. Two entirely new Survivors are making their debut in Risk of Rain Returns.”
