What’s also interesting is that PC Game Pass will retain its access to day-one releases, despite its new price being $8 less than the new Xbox Game Pass Ultimate price.
Xbox Game Pass is getting a price hick across all tiers and platforms, and day-one AAA releases are also getting more expensive.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is getting its price raised to $19.99 / £14/99 a month (previously $16.99 / £12.99), and PC Game Pass is getting its price hiked up to $11.99 / £9.99 a month (previously $9.99 / £7.99).
In addition, Xbox Game Pass will be temporarily unavailable on console soon, returning later in September with the new Xbox Game Pass “Standard”.
