Despite being free-to-play, Genshin Impact's Xbox port will seemingly require a Game Pass subscription to access online multiplayer
Briefly

The announcement that Genshin Impact will release on Xbox in November 2024 raises questions about needing an Xbox Game Pass subscription for online multiplayer access.
The Xbox Store page specifies: 'Online multiplayer on console requires Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or Xbox Game Pass Core (sold separately),' suggesting a subscription may be necessary.
Confusion arises as Xbox previously removed subscription requirements for free-to-play games, while Genshin's Game Pass listing mirrors paid titles like Final Fantasy 14.
Pre-orders for Genshin's Xbox port are live despite it being free-to-play, leading to speculation on whether the Game Pass requirement is an error.
