Xbox Game Pass is finally getting its long-awaited price increase.

We all knew it was coming. Game pass gets a price increase and a new more expensive tier for day 1 games.

I honestly can’t imagine paying $20/month for it. PC game pass will still get day 1 games at $12/month (was $10 before this) but it’s still not great value, and the trend of where this is going is so obvious that I wouldn’t want to bother using it anyways.

Xbox takes a 30% cut from devs, has ads on its console and wants to charge a subscription for online gaming (now raising its price by 25%). Can’t triple dip like this, Microsoft.

Haven’t renewed PS Plus either since its price hike. Just gonna play disc games on my PS5 till the end of its lifespan.

Are you me?

Same situation. No PSN renewals, when my Gamepass expires later this year that’s it. I’m good with Steam. These consoles got too greedy.
