We don't know too much about the Xbox Game Pass lineup for 2023 just yet, but Wo Long Fallen Dynasty is one of the biggest day one launches announced for next year so far. Team Ninja's upcoming action game looks a blast to play, and it seems the Japanese developer is pretty excited about the team's first Game Pass launch.
In a Tokyo Game Show 2022 interview with MP1st, the game's producer Fumihiko Yasuda talked about the game's Xbox Game Pass release, and how the team will benefit from being included in the service right from the off. Here's a snippet of what he said:
While we’re making a really, really hard game and we’re not sure what everyone will think of that, but by making it available day one on Game Pass so many players that maybe never played this game before will have a chance to do that and we’ll get even more players around the world than ever before.
So yeah, this is a big first for us at Koei Tecmo Games and Team Ninja as well and it’s something we’re really excited about.
There seems to be genuine excitement from the dev around a day one Game Pass launch and what it means for a new IP like Wo Long Fallen Dynasty.
For now, Wo Long Fallen Dynasty doesn't have a more specific launch date than sometime next year, but the team has just released a free demo for players to try out; available through September 26th.
Looking forward to Wo Long Fallen Dynasty on Xbox Game Pass? Let us know in the comments.

Definitely one of my most anticipated 2023 titles for sure.
The game looks pretty cool but i will probably not play much of it since challenging games and me arent a great combo. But good to see these kind of games coming to gamepass for people who love challenging games.
@Kaloudz im pretty sure they mean difficulty. SInce Team Ninja usually makes pretty challenging games.
Hope it’s not to hard.
I have skipped Elden Ring because of that
I’m such a wimp 😂
I'm having a hard time getting excited for the arrival of yet another Frustration Simulator, but I genuinely hope it turns out well, I know how popular these games are and I do like Team Ninja in general.
@Kaloudz They also made Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy origins, which is their only game i really played, but that one has a difficulty slider since it was also meant for Final Fantasy fans who are not used to challenging games. I know you're a FF fan, so if you like that kind of combat like in Wo Long/Nioh you should also try that one imo.
Played the Wo Long demo for a couple of hours now, although it looks hard at first, you can level up pretty fast , and you can summon another fighter beside you which makes it so much more doable, awesome game so far pretty lengthy demo , spells and weapons galore on par with Elden Ring, nice level up system ... So far very eager to see the final product
@Dezzy70 I would argue that Elden Ring, though difficult, is quite easier than all of FromSoft’s previous games.
