Capcom narrows down the release window of one of its upcoming titles that was already confirmed for a day-one Xbox Game Pass launch.

Generally speaking, most Xbox Game Pass Ultimate perks are relatively low-key, but there are times when a significant perk is given away. So is the case with the new Xbox Game Pass Ultimate perks coming on March 12 and March 21. On March 12, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can claim the Persona 3 Reload expansion pass, a $34.99 value, while the March 21 perk is Final Fantasy 14: Starter Edition.

The Persona 3 Reload expansion pass gets players access to three waves of DLC. The first wave, available March 12, includes the Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5 Royal EX BGM Sets, while the second wave, launching in May, features the Velvet Costume Pack and BGM Set. Finally, the third wave of Persona 3 Reload DLC will release in September and give players access to the highly-anticipated Answer DLC, aka Episode Aigis.

Final Fantasy 14: Starter Edition, meanwhile, gives players access to the wildly popular MMORPG complete with a 30-day membership and the Realm Reborn, Heavensward, and Stormblood expansions. Needless to say, this should keep fans of Final Fantasy 14 busy for quite some time.

Both of these Xbox Game Pass Ultimate perks are fitting, as Persona 3 Reload and Final Fantasy 14 are having their moment on Xbox. Persona 3 Reload was added to Xbox Game Pass as a day one game back in February, where it has enjoyed rave reviews from fans and critics alike. Final Fantasy 14, meanwhile, is finally making its way to Xbox on March 21 after spending years as a PC and PlayStation exclusive title. Xbox has clearly been making a concerted effort to make its brand more closely associated with big-name JRPGs, and it will be interesting to see if it pays off.
