    Look closer.. FCE is not free : it just installs the base version of the game.


    As to why DLC is not available, DLC is routinely not available on GamePass.

    It shows up as installable when you go to it, yes, but what Msross is saying is that if you try and install that, it won't actually give you the DLC. So sure, the page says it's available, but you won't have the DLC through Game Pass. It's the same content you get on the Xbox, game only, no DLC. It's probably just something to do with how their system marks Game Pass games in bundles for PC.

    - Surviving Mars (base game)
    - Green Planet (standard DLC)
    - Space Race (standard DLC)

    Lightsup55,

    You might want to to check what your doing.

    This thread is about the PC version, Not the xbox one version (which is what all your store links go to)

    On both the PC/xbox versions the gamepass installs the base version only... however the PC install client lets the 'FCE' appear to be installable, however it only installs the base version

    Really? Then explain why this thread is posted in the Xbox One forum for Surviving Mars:
    Surviving Mars Forum

    FYI: The forum for the Windows 10 release is over here:
    Surviving Mars (Win 10) Forum


    And to rephrase what CrysisWarXX3 was asking...

    - Surviving Mars - First Colony Edition is NOT on Xbox Game Pass
    - Surviving Mars - First Colony Edition is available on Xbox Game Pass for PC (Beta)

    And why is that?


    According to the store page listing on Microsoft.com, the Xbox One release IS available for Xbox Game Pass (on Xbox One).

    Unfortunately, I cannot verify this on the console as I don't have a Game Pass subscription myself.
