Crusader Kings 2 is a grand strategy game developed by Paradox Development Studio and published by Paradox Interactive. Set in the Middle Ages, this sequel to 2004’s Crusader Kings was released on February 14, 2012. But is it coming out on Game Pass?
Here’s all you need to know about whether or not Crusader Kings 2 is coming to PC and Xbox Game Pass.
Is Crusader Kings II on Xbox Game Pass?
No, Crusader Kings 2 is not coming out on Xbox Game Pass.
The game is only available for Microsoft Windows, MacOS, and Linux users. It came out for PC on February 14, 2012. Hence, until a console version of the game comes out, there is little chance of Crusader Kings 2 coming to Xbox Game Pass. Also, the game is now free to play on PC. Hence, players should not expect an Xbox release of the game.
Is Crusader Kings 2 on PC Game Pass?
No, Crusader Kings II is not coming out on PC Game Pass.
It came out for Microsoft Windows, Linux, and MacOS on February 14, 2012. The game is not coming to Game Pass due to the fact that it became free-to-play on October 18, 2019. Therefore, it makes no sense to list the game on PC Game Pass. Players can download the game for free from Steam or gog.com.
Can you play Crusader Kings 2 via Game Pass?
Unfortunately, you cannot play Crusader Kings 2 via Xbox or PC Game Pass. This is because the game is not part of the Game Pass library. The game was made free-to-play in October 2019. Players can download and play the game for free via Steam. However, DLCs for the game will require players to make purchases to play.
The game’s description reads:
“The Dark Ages might be drawing to a close, but Europe is still in turmoil. Petty lords vie against beleaguered kings who struggle to assert control over their fragmented realms. The Pope calls for a Crusade to protect the Christians in the Holy Land even as he refuses to relinquish control over the investiture of bishops – and their riches. Now is the time for greatness. Expand your demesne and secure the future of your dynasty. Fill your coffers, appoint vassals, root out traitors and heretics, introduce laws and interact with hundreds of nobles, each with their own agenda.
A good lord will always need friends to support him. But beware, as loyal vassals can quickly turn to bitter rivals, and some might not be as reliable as they seem… Stand ready, and increase your prestige until the world whispers your name in awe. Do you have what it takes to become a Crusader King?”
