Our read of the evidence
Partly documented. The information about the Game Pass launch appears only in media reports, with no primary source confirmation. Several outlets have published the details, but none cite an official statement from the developers or platform holders. As a result, the claim rests on reporting alone, which warrants a partly documented rating.
Our rating counts evidence, not opinions about anyone: events confirmed by a primary source (the person's own post, their official site, a court or government record) weigh most, then how many independent outlets report the story.
