Is the Xbox Game Pass discounted?

Is the Xbox Game Pass discounted? There has been speculation for months that Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate – which currently cost $ 10 and $ 15 per month, respectively – are expected to see a price hike in the near future, likely to $ 15. $ and $ 20 per month. Yet, at the moment, the speculation is whether a drop in world prices is coming or not. It is very rare for subscription services to drop in price. Their price only increases over time. Yet the price of the subscription service has recently fallen in three different countries: Chile, Israel and Hong Kong.

At the time, many believed that this decline was due to market conditions in each specific country, and it seems that assumption is safe. Take to Twitter, Industry Insider and Leaker Jeff grubb echoed this sentiment, noting that the United States, Canada and other regions are unlikely to follow with their own price cut. Grubb hasn’t completely ruled out this possibility, but you would assume that if a global price drop was imminent, Grubb or other industry insiders and leakers would have heard about it and relayed the information.

Grubb added to this, and in the process, apparently suggests that a price increase is also unlikely given that Xbox is more concerned with the long-term gains from dominance of the video game subscription service than with the profit making with Xbox Game Pass, which it currently is. ‘t.

“The Xbox has literally billions of dollars set aside to acquire content for Game Pass,” said Grubb. “So the Game Pass is a long way from making a profit. But as these cuts suggest, making a profit is not a concern at all at the moment.”

At the time of publication, we do not have a definitive answer as to whether or not the Xbox Game Pass is receiving a price reduction. It probably isn’t, and it also looks like prices aren’t going up either. That said, for now, this is all speculation, so take it with a grain of salt.

Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate are available through PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. For more information on the subscription service and all things Xbox, click here.
