Microsoft It seems that he continues to concentrate his efforts on making the service library Xbox Game Pass be as attractive as possible to your users. The platform celebrated 18 million members at the beginning of this year, but the Redmond company has plans to keep it growing: It seems that will be in talks with Ubisoft to add the content of Ubisoft Plus, which is available right now on PC for 14.99. This doesn’t sound far-fetched, especially after EA Play has recently integrated with Game Pass.
Xbox Game Pass could open the doors to Ubisoft Plus
Journalist Jeff Grubb of VentureBeat was recently on the GamesBeat Decides podcast to talk about certain movements of Microsoft that are taking place behind the cameras. In this sense, he maintains that the Redmond firm has been working with Ubisoft to reach an agreement to bring Ubisoft Plus to the Xbox Game Pass service. Grubb claims it doesn’t know how these talks will eventually materialize, or where the negotiations are, but it does know that Microsoft is trying to add that Ubisoft library. “I understand that they are trying to make that happen”, he expressed.
“What I don’t know is if they are going to add another $ 5 to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, or if there are going to be different tiers to involve all of these things,” Grubb said. “I honestly don’t know, I’m speculating. But I do think they are trying to figure out how to incorporate Ubisoft Plus. I think it will be a great business. “We remind you that the service of the French company was announced at E3 2019 under the name Uplay +, offering a catalog of more than 100 games.
“They are trying to find a way to incorporate Ubisoft Plus”
As we said, Microsoft has already made a similar move with Electronic Arts: EA Play (3.99 per month) was integrated into Xbox Game Pass last week, allowing Xbox Game Pass for PC and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers to enjoy the advantages of this service without an increase in the price. In the case of Ubisoft, whose platform is priced at 14.99, we will have to wait to find out if it ends up being integrated as a payment complement within the Microsoft service.
To this we have to add the fact that Xbox Game Pass just welcomed also 20 Bethesda games, stemming from Microsoft’s ZeniMax Media purchase agreement.
