Is Disney Speedstorm on Xbox Game Pass
Disney Speedstorm is currently not available on the Xbox Game Pass subscription service. The game is in early access, with the final release planned for early 2024, and at that time, you won’t have to worry about Xbox Game Pass as Disney Speedstorm will officially launch as a free-to-play game.

So, what about the current early access release, and why does it cost money? The idea behind the early access release is to let players in on the game who want to support it financially as a part of their Founders Pack program.
This way, Gameloft and Disney can make money while getting feedback from the player base to improve the game while preparing for the final release. Some might wonder why they should pay for an early access game they can wait and play the full version for free.
By paying for early access, you get a ton of in-game rewards, credits, and other perks like two unlocked racers with one other racer that you can unlock based on your choice, 4000 Tokens, two Golden Pass Credits, three Exclusive Racing Suits and Livery, Exclusive Founder’s Motto and Avatar and much more depending on which of three Founder’s Pack you purchase.
If you individually count the prices of the items and currency rewarded with the Founder’s Pack, the amount will be more than what you pay. This is why many players support the development cycle of games like Disney Speedstorm by purchasing the Founder’s Pack.
This is not the first time that Gameloft and Disney have used this approach of releasing a game in early access and making the final release free to play. The same was seen with Dinsey Dreamlight Valley’s early access release, though the only difference is that DDV is available on Xbox Game Pass and Disney Speedstorm is not.
