Is Sandustry on Xbox Game Pass?
Sandustry launched on PC Game Pass. Learn which tiers include it and the difference between PC installation, cloud streaming, and console support.
Yes. Sandustry joined PC Game Pass on August 13, 2026. The Microsoft product page lists PC-only and Ultimate subscription access, while native Xbox console installation remains unconfirmed.
Which Game Pass Tiers Include Sandustry?
The Microsoft/Xbox product listing currently includes:
- PC Game Pass for native Windows PC access; and
- Game Pass Ultimate, which includes PC access and may provide cloud streaming where supported.
Subscription catalogs, cloud availability, and device support vary by region and can change. Check the product page while signed into your account.
Can You Install It on an Xbox Console?
The product page’s “Play with” field lists PC. That confirms native Windows installation, not an Xbox One or Xbox Series build.
The same page lists single player, Xbox achievements, and Xbox cloud saves. It does not list Xbox Play Anywhere, console-native operation, or multiplayer.
Cloud Gaming vs Native Console Support
Xbox also has an official Cloud Gaming page for Sandustry. Cloud Gaming runs the game on remote hardware and streams the result to a supported device. It does not install a console build locally and therefore cannot be used as proof of native console support.
Game Preview vs Steam Early Access
Microsoft calls the product Game Preview, while Steam calls it Early Access. The labels serve similar unfinished-game roles on different storefronts, but they do not guarantee identical build numbers, update schedules, or store policies.
What Is Not Confirmed
- How long Sandustry will remain in the Game Pass catalog.
- Native Xbox One or Xbox Series support.
- Xbox Play Anywhere.
- Cross-store save transfers or shared achievements.
- A future console release date.
