If games are expected to stay on Xbox Game Pass for one year only (not including first-party Xbox studio games), so why were certain Ubisoft games on Game pass present there for more than one year?

I think you’ve misinterpreted it, all I can find about “1 year” relates to them committing to leave games on there for AT LEAST a year, not limiting it to 1 year

Because it’s the only way anyone would play them so of course Ubi took whatever fat check Microsoft and PlayStation gave them in exchange for a huge chunk of their older titles to be on GamePass and PS+.

i can find some references to “at least 1 year” but absolutely nothing for “only 1 year”

Many of the games on there have been since the beginning. There’s no one year rule.

I’m curious what you’re talking about, because I’ve never read nor heard about a hard limit being imposed.
