Hey @brownieland,

The Legendary Edition is only available at launch with EA Play Pro, not the standard EA Play subscription.

From my understanding, the Xbox Game Pass includes a standard EA Play subscription, so I'm afraid it would not provide access to the Legendary Edition.

@EA_Mako thanks for your quick response, perhaps it will be added later on the future?

@brownieland
That's certainly a possibility, though I'm not aware of any current plans or a timeframe for anything beyond EA Play Pro access at this point.

Based on what has happened in the past with other game releases, this is what normally happens:

(bearing in mind that just because it happened with other games is no guarantee for the future - and game subscription services continue to evolve such as with Game Pass, so this is a calculated guess based on past actions)

But EA games do tend to become available on the 'standard' platform (the 'vault' as they used to call it - and now EA Play (standard) linked to Game Pass) before a year has gone by - if the game didn't do so well, it could be a few months quicker.

I'm expecting MELE to do well, so I'd be surprised if it becomes available to Game Pass subscribers until well into 2022.

(personally I won't be waiting it out  )
