The marriage of Bethesda to Xbox has been officialized, with the two companies eager to discuss what the future has in store. In fact, they were so excited to share the news that the two had an hour-long roundtable talk about what players can expect to get out of the merger. Xbox's Phil Spencer spent a little time discussing the exclusivity of future Bethesda games, stating, "We have games that exist on other platforms. We're going to support those games on the platforms they're on. We love those communities and we'll continue to invest in them", and, "the thing I want you to know is that this is about delivering great exclusive games for you that ship on platforms where Game Pass exists".

Speaking of which, 20 Bethesda titles will be available on Xbox Game Pass, with 12 of them launching today, and the other 8 to be available tomorrow. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion will also be getting an FPS Boost mode patch for Series consoles in the future. Those games are as follows:

• Dishonored: Definitive Edition
• Dishonored 2
• DOOM
• DOOM II
• DOOM 64
• DOOM 3
• DOOM Eternal
• Fallout: New Vegas
• Fallout 4
• Fallout 76 + Steel Dawn
• Prey
• Rage 2
• Morrowind
• Oblivion
• Skyrim: Special Edition
• The Elder Scrolls Online
• The Evil Within
• Wolfenstein: The New Order
• Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
• Wolfenstein: Youngblood

Morrowind and Oblivion is nice, I was half expecting them to just add Skyrim, Fallout 4, DOOM and Wolfenstein and not really anything else.

Hope this helps to grow Game Pass

Very glad morrowind/oblivion are still getting love.

But if you’re an Xbox customer, the thing I want you to know is that this is about delivering great exclusive games for you that ship on platforms where Game Pass exists. That’s our goal, that’s why we’re doing this, that’s the root of this partnership that we’re building.

Fuller quote for context. Not sure who can realistically expect the next ES or Fallout or whatever on Sony consoles when he's outright saying they spend $7 bil mainly for platform exclusives. They clearly do not care about the Sony monies as much as building gamepass.

Morrowind and oblivion have received updates to render at higher resolution on series x and one x already too, can’t wait to jump back in.

Liking the sound of this!!

Game Pass is what Stadia should have been.

Ah, instead of paying to license the games for GamePass, just buy the company. How very Microsoft.

I do like to see gamers collectively agree on this being a good business model. It's like the one "live service" thing that no one seems to have qualms with

God bless gamepass

The madmen. I have no idea how this is profitable for them but clearly it is.

Yay for a bunch of old games I've already played. They still haven't added EA Play to PC Gamepass either. Zero desire to re-subscribe after my few months for $1 are over.

Todd managed to sell Skyrim once again! GG!

On behalf of the $1.7 trillion dollar company known as Microsoft, we will be really sorry to see your $1 a month go away. You will be missed.

the money they prepared was supposed to purchase TIKTOK, they just used the left over to buy Bethesda after their offer was rejected.

Wait, that means if I get gamepass, I'm buying Skyrim over and over again, every month
