when will the game go on sale?

I am only asking because honestly I am sick to my back teeth of expensive EA games being abandoned etc.
24.99 is really ridiculous a price to have to pay for something that might not ever get out of EA, its very expensive when I keep buying these EA games at this price only for them to keep falling by the way side or the game changes so much, it becomes something I don't want. I am just wondering when this game is set to go a steam sale or personal company sale. I can't even buy this from third party legal key selling sites because it's simply not on sale with those sites, I like to use.

I have been playing it on Xbox's PC Game Pass.

I have a free month of that pass from a high end laptop I bought, I haven't bothered to use the pass yet.

This is a bit convoluted but I do the daily Microsoft Bing searches and earn enough points to pay for The PC Game pass every month.

for some reason, it seems my free game pass they want me to claim,they suddenly want 12.99 of me, but the claim is until 11 Nov 2025, something very odd is going on. I had no idea they had even changed from 9.99 to 12.99 that is pretty extortionate when you cant play for example the sims 4 and all or most of their expansions. It's almost half the price of the game itself. I use Instant Gaming where I got Fallout 4 GOTY for just 6.75 but have no idea what I am doing in it the dog almost died half a dozen times lol

It goes on sale, now and then.
According to SteamDB the lowest was $19.79 back in March. The summer sale is at the end of June, maybe then?
I got 600+ hours in the game, I got my money’s worth for the $27 I paid for it.
Also $30 isn’t expensive, even for EA titles….
Hell I got 40+ hours out of Palworld, and I think I got my money’s worth…

I paid $70 for Hogwarts Legacy… great game, but not worth that $70
Stop worrying about the game leaving EA, and just have fun with it.

A slight warning, though. I enjoy and recommend the game, the game isn’t well optimized yet. So expect lower than normal FPS.
My system spec
Ryzen 7 5800x
32gb of ddr4 3200 mhz
Rtx 4070 ti
Playing at 5120x1440 on a 32:9 monitor (g9)
In Satisfactory I get 100+ fps with lows in the 90s

In Techtonica I get 80 fps at the start.
On my 200 hour save if I’m at Victor, the main PT of the I get 30 fps.
