Microsoft is sending free Forza Horizon 4 codes to Xbox Game Pass subscribers that played the game and purchased any DLC. Forza Horizon 4 will be delisted from stores and Xbox Game Pass in December...
Guess that's one of the nicer ways to handle it. Still https://stopkillinggames.com ffs.
This one will still be playable offline after the fact, so its offer is way better than the games that are the focus of the Stop Killing Games movement. The games they’re targeting are completely unplayable after being killed.
Short of buying the IP catalog, Microsoft seems to be doing right here.
Someone crunched the numbers and worked out this was cheaper than dealing with people wanting refunds of their DLC content when the main game was delisted.
Well technically yeah, because just giving it the game doesn't inherently cost then anything. It's just a "lost" sale. But it's soon not going to be able to be bought so what's the difference. This is a very sane and good move from MS. Still sucks that they have to delist it though
Since I no longer subscribe, I'm betting the DLC I grabbed on there won't be sent to me.
