Is SteamWorld Build On Game Pass?

Jorge AguilarBy Updated:2 Mins Read Guides

Many players would love to see SteamWorld Build on Game Pass, so it’s understandable to want to know. SteamWorld Build is a city-building and dungeon defense game that is coming to consoles and PCs alike. Below, we’ll go over whether you can play this game on PC and Xbox Game Pass.

Does Xbox Game Pass Have SteamWorld Build?

SteamWorld Build will be available on Xbox Game Pass Day One. This means that it will be released on Xbox Game Pass the day it is released worldwide.

To find games on your Xbox Game Pass account:

  1. On your Xbox console, sign in with your Microsoft account that has an active Xbox Game Pass subscription
  2. Go to the Home screen
  3. Select the Game Pass tab at the very top of your screen
  4. You can scroll down until you find SteamWorld Build

Will PC Game Pass Get SteamWorld Build?

SteamWorld Build will come to PC Game Pass the day it releases as a Day One title. Since it is Day One on Game Pass, the game will be released on PC Game Pass when it is released worldwide.

So if you have a PC, you’ll see it in your library on the Xbox App. To find it:

  1. Open the Xbox App
  2. Click on the Game Pass tab
  3. Press All Games
  4. Scroll until you see SteamWorld Build

You’ll be able to download it as soon as it is released.

How Long Will Steamworld Build Be on Game Pass?

SteamWorld Build will only be on Game Pass for a set time. Most Game Pass games only remain on the service for a few months. If the game is made by Microsoft, then that time is extended for an elongated period, sometimes being there permanently, like Redfall. We would say that the game should be there for long enough for everyone to enjoy.

If you’d like to buy SteamWorld Build, the best time to do it is when it’s on Game Pass. It will likely receive a discount, as most games do when they are on Game Pass. So if you want to keep the game forever, you can take advantage of the deal that comes from games being on Game Pass.

Games that leave Game Pass tend to come back later. For example, the Yakuza games have all left and returned to Game Pass.
