As of July 2026, Starfield remains available on both Xbox Game Pass (console) and PC Game Pass, where it has lived since it launched day one on September 6, 2023. As a first-party Bethesda Game Studios title owned by Microsoft, Starfield was one of the flagship day-one Game Pass releases, and first-party titles like it are permanent additions to the service rather than rotating third-party guests, so it continues to be playable at no extra cost for subscribers (including via Xbox Cloud Gaming). It is not on EA Play, which is a separate EA-run subscription; Starfield's subscription home is Game Pass under the Xbox/Bethesda umbrella.
