Is Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) on Xbox Game Pass?
Why Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) 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 Shadow Cat (Xbox Series). What we can tell you is what the list says today, and it does not include it.
That makes buying the practical route, and MX$89.00 is what the Microsoft Store charges in Mexico 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.

Darkness has swallowed the land. Only one unlikely hero is brave enough to fight back. Shadow Cat is a focused 2D action-platformer that puts you in control of a fearless cat boy on a mission to save a world overrun by evil creatures. Run, jump, and dash through 25 handcrafted levels set across dark forests, abandoned factories, dangerous caves, and forgotten tunnels. Straightforward controls make it easy to begin, but every new stage introduces more demanding platforming challenges. Time your jumps, dash across deadly gaps, avoid spikes and moving hazards, and launch fireballs to defeat the creatures standing in your way. Explore each level to collect life points and replenish your fireball ammo. Activate checkpoints to protect your progress when danger strikes. Taking damage costs one life and returns you to the latest checkpoint—but lose every life, and the level must be faced again…
FAQ
Is Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) on Xbox Game Pass?
No. Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) is not in the Xbox Game Pass catalogue as we last read it, so a subscription does not include it — you would need to buy it to play. Catalogue line-ups change every month, and this page follows them.

Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) costs MX$89.00 on the Microsoft Store in Mexico if you want to buy and keep it instead of using Game Pass.

Will Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) 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 Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) is added it will say yes here.
Can I play Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) with Game Pass Ultimate?
Not through the catalogue. Ultimate includes the Game Pass library, cloud gaming and EA Play, and Shadow Cat (Xbox Series) 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.
