Microsoft, the technology giant that offers the subscription-based Xbox Game Pass service, which allows you to play hundreds of games for a monthly fee, has brought upsetting news regarding the price. Here are the details…
An inevitable price increase is coming for Xbox Game Pass
Xbox Game Pass, which continues to gain popularity with the addition of new titles every day, is used by millions of gamers worldwide, especially in countries where game prices are high, like Turkey. The reason behind this is the service’s significant advantages.
Microsoft Gaming Head Phil Spencer attended the Tokyo Game Show 2023 event today. Japanese gaming news site Game Watch conducted an interview with Spencer, which they published just a few hours before the event.
The interview contained quite noteworthy statements. Spencer mentioned that the Game Pass service saw a significant boost shortly after the release of Starfield and the addition of Forza Motorsport to its catalog. He stated that the company had achieved its goal of offering major games to players for a monthly subscription fee alone.
However, Spencer also made an unpleasant statement for players, saying that an inevitable price increase for Xbox Game Pass in the future, without specifying a precise date, is on the horizon. It should be noted that this applies globally.
With the increasing number of major games in the Xbox Game Pass library, a price increase appears to be unavoidable. This is because, according to a recent leak, Microsoft will add all Call of Duty games to the service library after acquiring Activision Blizzard. This will undoubtedly add more value to the service.
