Is The Sinking City 2 on Xbox Game Pass?
Why The Sinking City 2 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 The Sinking City 2. What we can tell you is what the list says today, and it does not include it.
That makes buying the practical route, and ¥8,900 is what the Microsoft Store charges in Japan 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.

A survival horror in Lovecraft’s world The Sinking City 2 is a third-person survival horror set in 1920s Arkham. Deliberate, tense, and resource-lean: pressure builds as you push deeper, relief comes in brief refuge, and fear is something you manage. Mind your inventory, take on unnerving puzzles, and double back via unlocked shortcuts for supplies and upgrades. Arkham, New England A Roaring ‘20s port city buckling under a supernatural flood. Tide-stained avenues and battered Art Deco. Speakeasies gone dark. Districts feel lived-in and water-worn, with routes by foot and skiff, shortcuts behind collapsed seawalls, and secrets tucked in boarded parlors. You’ll navigate a hospital where science hides its face, a fish market where the merchandise bites back, and descend deep below the city to where eldritch horrors stir. A rescue with impossible stakes A ritual gone wrong trapped her soul…
FAQ
Is The Sinking City 2 on Xbox Game Pass?

Will The Sinking City 2 come to Xbox Game Pass?
We do not know, and neither does anyone outside Microsoft. Titles are added to the catalogue every month with no advance list, and nothing in the data we read predicts it. This page follows the catalogue, so if The Sinking City 2 is added it will say yes here.
Can I play The Sinking City 2 with Game Pass Ultimate?
Not through the catalogue. Ultimate includes the Game Pass library, cloud gaming and EA Play, and The Sinking City 2 is in none of those as we last read them, so buying it is the way to play it. Ultimate can still cut the price — members are often offered a discount on Store purchases, applied at checkout.
