Xbox Game Pass Welcomes Open-World MMORPG After Early Access

The popular MMORPG Pax Dei makes its debut on Xbox Game Pass, marking its transition from early access with new gameplay features.

MMORPG Pax Dei is now accessible on Xbox Game Pass. This title makes it the 55th game added to the subscription service this October, and the 177th Xbox Game Pass addition since the start of the year.

Pax Dei (Latin for “god’s peace”) was developed by Mainframe Industries, a Helsinki studio with talent from Blizzard, Ubisoft, and Remedy. This social sandbox game focuses on community-building, allowing players to claim unoccupied land, creating villages, towns, and fortresses through cooperation. Pax Dei launched in early access in June 2024.

The 1.0 version became available on October 16, at 11 am ET. Players can access it on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox Game Pass. Unlike typical cases with day-one releases, this title is included for all Xbox Game Pass tiers, including the newly introduced Xbox Game Pass Premium. The full release underwent a server wipe for all players, introducing new gameplay mechanics and balancing improvements.

Streaming Availability

Unlike most titles in the service, Pax Dei does not support Xbox Cloud Gaming. However, it is available through other platforms like GeForce Now and AirGPU, possibly due to its PC-only status.

Future Additions to Xbox Game Pass

Six more titles will join Xbox Game Pass by the end of October 2025, with notable games like Keeper launching soon.
