Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Price Hike – Why I’m Finally Not Renewing My Subscription
Microsoft just announced huge changes to Xbox Game Pass with new subscription tiers: Essential, Premium, and Ultimate. Along with the rebranding comes a massive price increase, with Game Pass Ultimate jumping from $19.99 to $29.99 per month and PC Game Pass also seeing a 40% hike.
In this video, I break down the new plans, explain why Microsoft’s updates—combined with the removal of direct Microsoft Rewards redemptions for Game Pass—have finally priced me out, and share why I’m planning to cancel when my subscription ends.
Are you sticking with Xbox Game Pass, or has this new update pushed you away too? Let me know in the comments!
