ESO+ on game pass?
With Microsoft now buying out Bethesda and wanting to push game pass. What are the chances we'll see the ESO+ sub rolled into game pass? I mean that would be a pretty sweet deal though I don't know if they'd be willing to give away ESO's separate revenue stream.

Id love it myself. I used Xbox game pass for several months before I got into ESO. I shut down my xbox game pass so I could sub for ESO since I dont like having multiple subs for gaming going on at once.

If I got ESO+ as well as all the regular games on xbox game pass I'd be extremely happy XD

If it happens, it won't be for a long while yet. the buyout was just authorized, but it still has to happen. Then they have to slowly migrate all the services into microsoft tech, absorb the teams and studios under the M$ umbrella, and other things. I'd be surprised if it happened by 2022, to be honest.

Microsoft said for right now they are letting the Devs alone and not changeing anything ... So something like this might not happen for a while ...

most likely at the moment base game free for game pass subscribers, everything else as separate purchase.
as from the picture eso (base game) included for console and streaming service.

I'm hoping this is the start of them adding the game to the Windows 10 store, so we can have cross-save at some point.

That does not sound like a possibility, imo

What? It was literally confirmed that ESO for game pass is also PC.

Bigger question is the PC Microsoft one with Steam/Bethesda servers pr console servers?

Base game + Morrowind are part of game pass, not the ESO+ sub.

ESO for PC isn't on the Gamepass announcement that was released to the press. They'd need a Windows Store build to do that, which doesn't exist yet. I hope eventually, which would allow for a form of Cross save or Crossplay with their Xbox and Mobile players but that doesn't exist now.

ESO has its own launcher separate from steam on PC already, so technically they wouldn't have to make it a Windows Store game, they could just have gamepass on the PC use that launcher instead of either Steam or the Windows Store.
