Apparently, it would take approximately six to twelve months for a freshly released game to come to the Xbox Game Pass. Sad news for everyone who was hoping for immediate access to any of the latest and upcoming titles this year, such as Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth or Assassin's Creed: Shadows. Although "Like a Dragon" was released in January this year, it is still unsure when or even if the title will come to the game pass at all.
But that games will take months or even years until they come to the game pass is not always the case. There still were some day-one releases, such as Starfield or Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
