Xbox Tease Points to Cyberpunk 2077 Arriving on Game Pass Soon

A cryptic 'Melissa McGamepass' post has triggered Cyberpunk 2077 speculation ahead of Microsoft's March Game Pass update.

Overview

  • Xbox Game Pass shared a faux email on March 2 highlighting a bolded 'v' and the phrase 'wake up,' teasing a new addition that is 'v cool.'
  • Outlets and fans link the cues to Cyberpunk 2077, noting the protagonist named V, Keanu Reeves’ 'wake up, Samurai' line, and a 'breathtaking' nod to his E3 moment.
  • Microsoft has not confirmed the game for Game Pass, and details such as timing, subscription tier, and any Phantom Liberty access remain unknown.
  • Xbox used a similar tease recently for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 that was officially confirmed the next day, prompting expectations of a swift reveal.
  • If added, Cyberpunk 2077 would be a high-profile get for the service, with the game reported at about 35 million copies sold by late 2025 after major post-launch improvements.
