You only need Xbox Live Gold for online multiplayer. The Game Pass gives you access to a library of games, but the Gold is for the online features.

Hot take: Single-player games on Game Pass don't need Gold. So, it depends on how you play!

I've had Game Pass for a while now. Trust me, you only need Gold for the online multiplayer experience. Single-player and offline play work just fine without it!
