Yes, Blue Prince is indeed lining up to be part of the Xbox Game Pass roster upon its release. Gamers will rejoice at the chance to dive into this intriguing title on both Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC, offering a seamless gaming experience whether you’re committed to console or prefer the versatility of PC.
Gamers, mark your calendars, because Blue Prince is making its grand debut on Xbox Game Pass in just a few days! The excitement is palpable as you watch the announcement trailer on YouTube, which teases all the thrills to come.
This year has been quite remarkable for gaming, with heavyweight RPGs like Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and Assassin’s Creed Shadows, alongside engaging multiplayer titles such as Split Fiction and Monster Hunter Wilds, capturing players’ imaginations. Blue Prince might not have initially been on your radar among these giants, but it’s ready to carve out its own space. This gem from Dogubomb, published by Raw Fury, is an exploration game that’s already being whispered about as a potential sleeper hit—think Balatro but with a twist.
Set to launch on April 10, Blue Prince has already garnered exceptional reviews and holds the top-rated spot for 2025 Xbox games on Metacritic. Merging elements from roguelikes, puzzle games, and walking simulators, it invites you into the intriguing corridors of Mt. Holly mansion. Players must navigate this ever-shifting mansion in search of the elusive Room 46. Each day brings a new layout to explore, and even if you don’t progress immediately, you’ll gather crucial insights and items for your next attempt.
Naturally, with all this buzz, Xbox and PC players alike are eager to know if they can dive into Blue Prince via Xbox Game Pass. The good news is that from the day it launches, April 10, it will be accessible to all Game Pass subscribers. Whether you’re using the standard Game Pass, PC-specific Game Pass, or the Ultimate tier (which includes cloud gaming), you’re covered.
If you’re wondering about other ways to experience Blue Prince, fear not! While a Game Pass subscription is a great option, you can also purchase the game outright on the platforms it’s releasing on, which include Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC (via Steam and the Microsoft Store), and the PlayStation 5.
Though the official pricing wasn’t immediately clear on all platforms, Dogubomb has revealed through Discord that the game will be priced at $29.99. So, if you’re considering a subscription solely for Blue Prince, it might be more cost-effective to purchase the game directly. However, if you’re already a Game Pass member, you have nothing to worry about.
PlayStation users aren’t left out either. Blue Prince will also be featured in Sony’s Game Catalogue, accessible to all PlayStation Plus subscribers from day one.
With so many ways to dive into Blue Prince, there’s no excuse to miss out on what promises to be one of this year’s standout gaming experiences. Stay tuned for more updates, reviews, and tips to enhance your gaming journey with Blue Prince and beyond.
