Xbox Game Pass Expands

Xbox Game Pass is a pretty genius idea. Essentially the Netflix of video games on the Xbox One, players can jump in, check out over 100 Xbox One and Xbox 360 games, download whatever they want to play to their system, and keep it for as long as their subscription is running. At $9.99 a month, you’re actually only looking at the cost of two AAA releases for an entire year’s subscription. And now, considering we know Crackdown 3, State of Decay 2, Sea of Thieves, and all first-party exclusives other will be coming to Game Pass on day one, there’s money to be saved this year alone.

Xbox Game Pass’ library is fairly heavy on old 360 games right now, but this is a promising sign moving forward that we could get an all-encompassing subscription service at some time in the future. Sure, having physical copies of games allows for trade-ins, but $120 a year for an ever-growing library looks incredibly good value for money compared to $60 per new, AAA release.
