Xbox Game Pass subscribers may have a new medieval adventure to gaze forward to in March. Hints dropped by the official Xbox Game Pass social media team strongly suggest that Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is poised to join the service, building on the popularity of the original title which recently became available on the platform.
The tease comes in the form of a mock internal email from “Melissa McGamepass,” a recurring persona used by the Xbox team to playfully announce upcoming Game Pass additions. This isn’t the first time McGamepass has generated buzz; the character was previously used 5-6 years ago to drop cryptic clues about future Game Pass titles, a tactic that proved popular with the gaming community. The latest email, addressed to “Xbox Game Pass Social,” states, “If you’re getting quite hungry for a fun adventure, all I can say is something bis about to be deliverance’d to Xbox Game Pass.”
The deliberately misspelled “deliverance’d” immediately caught the attention of fans, widely interpreted as a clear nod to the sequel to Warhorse Studios’ critically acclaimed RPG, Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The original game, known for its historical accuracy and immersive open world, has already found a home on Xbox Game Pass, further fueling speculation that its successor will follow suit. Windows Central first reported on the social media campaign.
Microsoft typically announces new Game Pass titles in the first half of each month, making a reveal in the coming days highly probable. The timing aligns perfectly with the current marketing push, leading many to believe an official announcement is imminent. GG.deals also reported on the growing anticipation.
The original Kingdom Come: Deliverance, released in 2018, offered a unique take on the RPG genre, eschewing traditional fantasy tropes for a grounded, historically-based experience set in 15th-century Bohemia. The sequel promises to expand on this foundation, offering players a deeper and more immersive experience. NewsBreak highlighted the fan excitement surrounding the potential Game Pass addition.
While neither Microsoft nor Warhorse Studios have officially confirmed the addition of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II to Xbox Game Pass, the evidence presented through the “Melissa McGamepass” campaign is compelling. The playful marketing strategy has successfully generated significant buzz and anticipation within the gaming community.
The potential arrival of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on Xbox Game Pass would represent a significant addition to the service’s growing library of titles, offering subscribers access to a highly anticipated RPG at no extra cost. Fans of the original game, and newcomers alike, will be watching closely for an official announcement in the coming weeks.
