Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered is the latest PlayStation Studios game making the jump from PS5 and/or PS4 to PC. Bearing in mind that the Xbox Game Pass list of titles includes more than 400 PC games, including several being added this week, will Spider-Man Remastered be coming to Game Pass this week or in the future?
When is Spider-Man Remastered coming to Xbox Game Pass for PC?
Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered is not coming to Xbox Game Pass for PC on day one on August 12. The likelihood of the game ever coming to Xbox Game Pass are extremely slim too. For a game to be added to Xbox Game Pass, it needs to be released on the Microsoft Windows Store. While Spider-Man is coming to PC, it is only being released on Steam and the Epic Games Store and not the Microsoft Windows Store, making it impossible for the game to be added to Game Pass at the moment.
The chances of Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered eventually being released on the Microsoft Windows Store are also extremely slim. None of the PlayStation Studios games that have been ported to PC have been released on the Windows Store — including Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone, and God of War — nor has the PlayStation-owned IP Death Stranding. While San Diego Studio’s MLB The Show franchise has made it to Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One for the past couple of years, this was at the insistence of MLB rather than Sony and it is unlikely that any other franchises will follow suit.
Spider-Man Remastered hit the headlines just a few days ago when a pricing error meant Steam players in some regions were due to receive refunds. The price has also been changed on Epic Games Store now. In other news, the most recent Steam Client beta update added compatibility for Nintendo Joy-Con controllers.
