It’s called Xbox Game Pass, just like the original, but it’s a new experience that we are building together with the PC community.
Xbox Game Passcurrently offers console players over 100 different titles to choose from with a range of different publishers behind them. Spencer explains that first-party titles will also be coming with Game Pass for PC the same day that are released, which is the same as the current offer console players receive.Currentlythe subscription service has added recent titles such asThe Banner Saga, Metal Gear Survive, Outer Wilds, with games such as The Banner Saga 2 and Full Metal Furies coming inJune.
The Xbox Game Pass will still be called Xbox Game Pass for PC and much like its console counterpart will offer 20% on games currently in the library and up to 10% off related game DLC and add-ons.
It was earlier this month that Microsoft unveiled they would be bringing a combined subscription of Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Live Gold in the form ofXbox Game Ultimatewhich went live for Xbox Insider beta members to test. Maybe we will hear more about this service as well at E3.
