SAVE $30: As of Oct. 11, Amazon is offering a 3-month pass to XBox Game Pass Ultimate for $60 or $20 a month.
The past couple of weeks have been an emotional roller coaster for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate holders and fans. On Oct. 1st, Microsoft announced that it would be increasing the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate by a startling 50%. This increase was not received well by users and fans, according to Mashable’s senior culture reporter Christiana Silva. Since this announcement arrived two days before Microsoft also announced increased Xbox console prices, fans have been… upset.
Microsoft also sent out communications on October 8th stating that some users would not experience a price increase to their subscription. Unfortunately, the US and UK were not among the people catching a break. If you’re a big fan of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, there is good news this weekend, though. Right now on Amazon, you can get a 3-month pass for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for the current price.
If you’re curious what Xbox Game Pass Ultimate has to offer, it packs a lot into one pass. Game Pass Ultimate allows you to stream and play hundreds of games and join the heart of the Xbox gaming community with online console multiplayer. The pass includes console multiplayer, EA Play, and a sizable variety of game genres. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate also allows you to play games like Avowed, South of Midnight, and Doom: The Dark Ages the minute they are released.
With this pass on Amazon, you can stave off the price increase to your subscription for a few months. Make sure to take note that Amazon explicitly states that this pass is non-returnable and non-refundable. The pass gives you a code for 3 free months, allowing you to decide when you begin to use it.
