retroed Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 Game Pass Ultimate is out. Search Game Pass on the Xbox. Not sure if it's just for Insiders, but I was able to pay £1 and get Game Pass until the current expiry of my Xbox Live, which is the end of October 2020. Perfect timing as my Game Pass ran out last week.
Hendo Posted June 9, 2019 Author Posted June 9, 2019 Supposedly Game Pass Ultimate includes PC. And Metro Exodus will be on GP.
retroed Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 Yep, Ultimate does include PC. I've just set a few games to install from my phone, and it's given me the option to install to PC as well as the One.
mfnick Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 Thanks for the heads up @retroed, just got mine done until March 2020, awesome! Seems a bit too good to be true, wonder if it’s going to come out as a mistake and get revoked. Unless I’m being dumb? That does mean I’ve got Game Pass until my Gold subscription runs out in 2020 for a £1? That seems ridiculous!
Bob Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 When I tried it said the first month would be £1, then the following months would be the difference between my current gold sub and the ultimate pass. Just said £10.99 a month though which shouldn't be right.
mfnick Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 Mines like Retro’s where it shows I’m subscribed to Game Pass Ultimate until March 2020 with recurrent billing off. When buying it also said it would add it to my pre-existing Gold for up to 36(?) months.
Hendo Posted June 9, 2019 Author Posted June 9, 2019 Not sure about that. But a list has appeared with what PC games will be on GP - https://gg.deals/blog/full-list-of-xbox-game-pass-for-pc/ Some good stuff in there, and quite similar to the Xbox version.
mfnick Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 37 minutes ago, Nag said: When you're buying Game Pass can you use account credit or does it have to go on a credit card? I’ve used account credit most of the times I’ve added months to it. Don’t know what it uses for auto renewal though, may automatically use your credit card even if you’ve got money in your account, can’t confirm either way on that. 1
DisturbedSwan Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 So now there’s 3 separate Xbox updates’ threads? ?
Hendo Posted June 9, 2019 Author Posted June 9, 2019 Firstly, patience, I'm trying to split the bigger threads out. Secondly, yeah. And I'm sure they'll be a thread just on the new machine too. 3
Craymen Edge Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 So, PC Game Pass is available now, although typically not easy to find on Microsoft's store. The £1 for the first month, £3.99 thereafter.
Hendo Posted June 9, 2019 Author Posted June 9, 2019 I paid the £1 for Ultimate. I paid up last year for a full year of GP, so now I don't have to think about it till the next payment goes out in November. I'm not really ever gonna get the benefit of the PC side, but I wanted the Gold & GP together anyway. 1
Hendo Posted June 10, 2019 Author Posted June 10, 2019 All those games are up on Xbox GP. Along with Batman : Arkham Knight, Borderlands Handsome Collection and Metro Exodus. PC current and upcoming list looks really good too - https://www.windowscentral.com/xbox-game-pass-pc-list Slay The Spire is on there!
Maf Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 I’m not subscribed to GP so how do I get the best value deal? Sounds like people who got it up to 2020 something were already subscribed (I’m not even Gold subscriber). So is the £1 for this month then £10.99 a month the only option or is there a smarter way to get it for cheaper? EDIT: Also Amazon has GP 3 months for £15. Think I might but this and the £1 for a month to get 4 months for £16 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07S97D11H/ref=gbph_tit_m-2_4027_6086fa14?smid=AR9ZQCUDB1BRG&pf_rd_p=e34e61fe-c624-4ee2-9a1b-42d897924027&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-2&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_i=300703&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=3CJH709WWHJPB4QN4VWZ
retroed Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 Just put on as much Gold as you can, and then go to join Game Pass Ultimate. It should only charge you £1 to give you the same amount of Game Pass as your Gold sub.
Maf Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 I read in the T’s&C’s if you buy Ultimate for a £1 it will match your current Gold subscription up to 36 months. So seems legit. Top up Gold, buy Ultimate for a £1, and you get it for that price.
Maf Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 Mine wasn’t like that. I just went to the upgrade for £1 offer on the Gamepass tab and now it says my next charge will be £10.99 on September 2020
