Is Need for Speed Unbound on Game Pass?

Need for Speed Unbound on Game Pass would seem like a dream come true for long time fans of racing games eager to try out the latest entry in the Need for Speed franchise. With many Need for Speed games already available on Xbox Game Pass thanks to Microsoft’s partnership with EA Play, you may be wondering if Need for Speed Unbound will be coming to the subscription service. Let’s talk about Need for Speed Unbound on Game Pass.

Is NFS Unbound on Game Pass?

Need for Speed Unbound will come to Game Pass on November 29, 2022 but only as a 10-hour trial instead of giving access to the full game for subscribers. After the trial expires, you’ll have to purchase the full game in order to continue your progress.

This is actually because those who are subscribed to Game Pass have the benefit of having access to EA Play basic which offers the trial. We might not see Need for Speed Unbound on Xbox Game Pass for good until Summer 2023 which is midway into the year. Most games from EA usually release on Game Pass after 6 months of their release.

While a 10-hour trial for Need for Speed Unbound on Game Pass might not sound like a lot, it will give you a good feel for whether you really like the game enough to purchase it. If you’re willing to wait, there is a possibility of EA adding Need for Speed Unbound on the EA Play basic which Game Pass subscribers could gain access to in the future.

If you’re planning to try out Need for Speed Unbound on Game Pass, you better make sure the time you play counts as you won’t be able to keep playing after reaching the end of the 10-hour trial period.
