Xbox Game Pass wants to continue to be the best service in the video game industry. Thus, Microsoft plans to present a family plan to further increase the number of users.
Although it is now possible to share the benefits of Xbox Game Pass, you can only do it with a second console. Given this, Phil Spencer, director of Xbox and the most visible face of said division, hinted that said service will have a family subscription.
“It is something we would like to do. There is a home console function for the family. But for various family members who have consoles, a family plan would help. I really appreciate the comments, ”he said. Spencer who did not detail when this type of subscription will be seen.
Streaming services already offer this feature. A family plan on Spotify allows, for example, that several people can access the same subscription for a slightly higher rate than normal. With Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S now available worldwide, the number of new users is expanding exponentially.
It can also happen that once you have your new console, you plan to give your old one Xbox One to a relative. And you may want to share your membership of Xbox Game Pass with three, four or even five other people.
Currently, the basic Xbox Game Pass subscription for consoles (that is, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One) is priced at $ 9.99 per month. The PC version has the same monthly price, but the first month costs only $ 1.
