Microsoft game pass

Hey, just a question out of curiosity more than anything. I haven’t played FHM in about three years since my laptop died. I Am planning on getting version 7 now that I’ve got a new pc. I’ll be honest, I’m a little worried to hear about a mobile game company getting involved. But maybe that won’t start affecting things until the next iteration. But anyway, back on track. With my new pc I subscribed to Microsoft game pass, and I just saw the other day that OOTP21 is on there. So i am curious if any insight can be offered into why that game is on there and no FHM versions? Or even why the newest version and not the older ones? Wouldn’t putting newest one on the free service cut into revenue? Maybe Microsoft pays you to put it on game pass(That’s just a thought. You don’t have to answer that). But yeah. Was just surprised to see it on there and was interested to hear about anything you’d be willing to share about how that works. Oh, and I posted this in the FHM forum because that is the version I am interested in, not OOTP, and definitely would not be upset to see FHM on game pass.

Microsoft wanted OOTP, that's about the long and short of it.
