Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the biggest, maybe even the biggest, video game releases of 2020, so it was a surprise when the Xbox Portugal Twitter account revealed that it will be available on Xbox Game Pass on launch day.

Xbox Game Pass is a subscription-based service that costs $10/month (currently $5 for PC, beta version) and offers unlimited access to over 100 games; for CD Projekt's next landmark game, this is a real bargain!

And it's a great value for money.

And on that note, you're right. The tweet was quickly deleted and the account apologized for posting the incorrect information. 'Unfortunately, this was our mistake. We wanted to talk about the Xbox One X Special Edition of Cyberpunk 2077. We have no information about Xbox Game Pass and deeply apologize."

Some questioned whether the Xbox Portugal Twitter account was an official Xbox account, as it was not authenticated and had less than 1,000 followers. It is also a relatively new account, with the first tweet uploaded on April 1. Followers include the blue-checked Xbox Brazil Twitter account and Xbox Marketing GM Aaron Greenberg, and it appears legitimate: scrolling through the old tweets, it appears to be nothing more than a traditional Xbox account appears to be nothing more than a traditional Xbox account.

In any case, the point here is that the tweet was not accurate, as CD Projekt also confirmed. It was not accurate." We have no details or information to share regarding participation in Game Pass."

Cyberpunk 2077 is due out on September 17. In case you missed it, it will feature customizable sex toys.

Update: A Microsoft representative confirmed that this account is the official Xbox Twitter handle for the region.
