Will I get a refund on Xbox Game Pass?
Sometimes, depending on how you paid for your Xbox Game Pass membership, you may be refunded a portion of your payment based on how much of your membership you’ve had the chance to use.
In most cases, however, if you pre-paid you’ll simply have access until the date you paid for, meaning you won’t instantly lose access to your Xbox Game Pass benefits.
