Is Arcade Archives 2 V'BALL on Xbox Game Pass?
Why Arcade Archives 2 V'BALL is not on Game Pass, and what that costs you
The short version is above. The longer version is worth two minutes, because “not on Game Pass” is not one situation — it is several, and they have different answers.
A title can sit outside the catalogue because its publisher never put it there, because it was in and has since rotated out, or because it is too new. Microsoft publishes a membership list, not a reason, so we will not guess which applies to Arcade Archives 2 V'BALL. What we can tell you is what the list says today, and it does not include it.
That makes buying the practical route, and €8.99 is what the Microsoft Store charges in Italy right now. Two things move that number and both are worth checking before you pay. Store prices are set market by market, and the spread is often larger than any sale — the table below ranks every region we track. And if you already subscribe, Game Pass members are frequently offered a discount on Store purchases, applied at checkout rather than shown in the listed price, so the figure here is the ordinary price anyone pays.
The other honest answer is that a subscription may still be the better buy — just not for this game. If you are weighing one purchase against a month of Ultimate, the arithmetic is on our Game Pass prices page, and the catalogue itself is what a subscription would actually get you.
