The Free Trial version, including the open beta test, will not require an Xbox Game Pass (Core or Ultimate) plan to play. However, the full Xbox Series X and S version will require an Xbox Game Pass (Core or Ultimate) plan to play.

I assume you don't have to also pay the subscription fee?

The complete edition of FF14 is $60 on steam, so it sounds just like every other Gamepass game: you can play it without buying it for as long as you have a membership.

Do you not need a psn sub to play online on the ps4? I thought you needed subs to do any sort of online play for anything with either console

This. Didn't game pass core replace live as the standard lowest cost subscription that allows you to play online?

Sounds better than PSN because I believe you buy the game, pay for PSN and a game sub, which is why I stopped

For 14 no you don't. I don't sub to ps+ at all and I play 14 every day. All you need is the sub for 14 and that's it.

this only makes sense if theyre saying you can buy the game + pay the sub fee, OR skip buying the game and use your gamepass sub to get access to the game + pay the sub fee.

You never needed to pay for PSN to play any MMO with it's own subscription fee on any playstation. DC universe (yep, this is still a thing believe it or not), elder scrolls online, final fantasy 14, neverwinter etc.

FYI you also do not need to pay for PSN to play any free to play online-only game. This is stuff like overwatch, phantasy star online 2, apex legends, call of duty warzone, genshin impact, fortnite and so on.

if that ever was the case it was for a very short time because a bunch of my friends specifically played it on alt accounts they didnt have gold subs on for some reason

Locking a game you paid for behind a paywall is a real scummy business practice that needs to be done away with. Microsoft started this shit and sony followed they're even raising the prices, at this point pc is the best way to game.
