Microsoft is making huge investments in its groundbreaking Xbox Game Pass service in the gaming world. It has been revealed that the company allocates more than $1 billion to this service every year. So, what is this huge budget used for? Here are the details…

Microsoft spends millions of dollars a year on Xbox Game Pass games!

Microsoft is paying millions of dollars in upfront payments to game developers and publishers to get third-party games onto the Xbox Game Pass platform, in order to make more games available in the Game Pass library and to make those games accessible to a wider audience.

Game Pass, which is a great blessing for game lovers, can be played not only on Xbox but also on PC and cloud platforms. The service, which works with a subscription system, attracts more users every day, especially with the addition of popular games to the platform.

Moreover, Microsoft also contributes greatly to the promotion of these games. We can say that Xbox Game Pass is a showcase especially for “new games that have entered the gaming world.” However, despite spending such a large budget, it is said that Game Pass brings a heavy financial burden to Microsoft .

Although the company has increased the prices of the service, the revenues of the platform may be below expectations. Nevertheless, Microsoft does not give up on developing this platform and even plans to enrich the service with more games.

In the coming months, major titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 are expected to be added to Game Pass. That means there could be a new explosion in subscribers. After all, players have access to a huge library of games for a monthly fee.
