Did Xbox just announce one of its first Game Pass games for 2024 or not?

A recent announcement from Microsoft tied to Xbox Game Pass has left fans a bit puzzled. Oftentimes, when Xbox announces future titles that are coming to Game Pass, it doesn't do so until the month that they're about to roll out. Although there are some exemptions to this rule, this is more often than not what subscribers have come to expect.

In a new post on Xbox's official website today, it was said that Square Enix's Octopath Traveler 2 would be coming to Xbox Game Pass in early 2024. Originally, Octopath Traveler 2 was confirmed to be heading to Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S this past week after first coming to PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and PC in early 2023.

Strangely, not long after Microsoft said that Ocopath Traveler 2 would join Xbox Game Pass next year, it updated its blog post to remove this mention. Microsoft noted that this info was"included in error" which doesn't outright shoot down the possibility of Octopath Traveler 2 coming to Xbox Game Pass. Currently, some fans believe that Square Enix's RPG might have simply been announced for Game Pass far earlier than it was supposed to.

What Is Octopath Traveler 2? As mentioned, Octopath Traveler 2 is a sequel to the original Octopath Traveler which was at first an exclusive title for Nintendo Switch when it arrived in 2018. In the years since landing on Switch, Square Enix has brought the game elsewhere and eventually released a sequel earlier in 2023. Even though Xbox users have had to wait a bit longer than they would have liked to play the title, it's set to hit Xbox in the first months of 2024.
