For gamers, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate has been a go-to subscription, delivering a wide array of titles for a flat fee. However, recent revelations indicate a shift in the landscape of Microsoft’s gaming service.
In a surprising move, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma acknowledged that Game Pass prices have become a burden for players. Starting today, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will decrease from $29.99 to $22.99 per month, while PC Game Pass will now cost $13.99, down from $16.49.
Despite the reduction in subscription prices, players will no longer have access to new Call of Duty titles through the service. This decision has raised concerns among subscribers who look for high-profile games as part of their monthly offerings.
The immediate fallout includes mixed reactions from the gaming community. While some appreciate the lower price, others feel disillusioned of prominent franchises like Call of Duty, questioning the overall value of their subscriptions.
