Far Cry 5 is the next big Ubisoft game that’s coming to Xbox Game Pass. The action-adventure shooter will join the recently-added Assassin’s Creed Origins on July 1, and it will also be available on Xbox Cloud Gaming and PC Game Pass.
Microsoft announced back in April that more Ubisoft games would be added to Xbox Game Pass in the near future, so this is likely just the beginning. Ubisoft also released Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Extraction day one on Xbox Game Pass earlier this year, though this will likely remain an exception.
