Xbox Game Pass For PC Priced, Ultimate Pass Available At $1 Introductory Price

by Rainier on June 9, 2019 @ 9:41 a.m. PDT

Microsoft's Windows platform for PC.

Xbox Game Pass is Microsoft's digital gaming subscription service that gives you unlimited access to over 100 Xbox One and Backward Compatible Xbox 360 games for $9.99 USD per month.

With Xbox Game Pass, you can download and play a broad range of games in full fidelity on your Xbox One.

Each month, Xbox Game Pass will add a new set of games to the catalog so there is always something new to play across a diversity of experiences, genres, ratings and more. For gamers, this means endless play of full-fidelity gaming experiences without having to worry about streaming, bandwidth or connectivity issues.

Xbox Game Pass for PC will give players unlimited access to a curated library of over 100 high-quality PC games on Windows 10, from well-known PC game developers and publishers such as Bethesda, Deep Silver, Devolver Digital, Paradox Interactive, SEGA, and more. And just as we committed on the console, it is our intent to include new games from Xbox Game Studios in Xbox Game Pass for PC the same day as their global release, including titles from newly acquired studios like Obsidian and inXile. We’re working with over 75 developers and publishers to bring PC content to the service and we’ll ensure the library remains curated and full of great PC titles across a variety of genres, with new games added every month.

Unlimited access to a library of high-quality PC games for an introductory price of $4.99 per month, $1 for the first month.

A few titles were already listed on the official page such as "coming soon": Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Gears 5, Forza Horizon 4, Hello Neighbor, Hellblade, Sea of Thieves, State of Decay 2, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, We Happy Few and Ark.

Xbox Game Pass for PC members will also receive discounts in the Microsoft Store on Windows of up to 20% on games currently in the library and up to 10% off related game DLC and add-ons.

The Ultimate Game Pass (combining Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass) is now available at $1 (normally $14.99).

More details will be revealed later today when Microsoft has its E3 2019 conference (1 PM PST/4 PM EST/9 PM BST)

For a complete list of all games offered through Xbox Game Pass, visit here. And be sure to check back in each month to see the newest additions to the catalog.

As an added benefit, Xbox Game Pass members can purchase all Xbox One games in the catalog – and related add-ons – at an exclusive discount, allowing you to dive deeper into the Xbox Game Pass titles you love most, and make them part of your permanent library.

If you haven’t tried Xbox Game Pass yet, you can play free for 14 days.
