Rumors about the new subscription method return Xbox Game Pass Friends & Familywhich will shelter a total of 5 users under the same account. This information is highly relevant, and even more so after the company suppressed the promotional offer of 1 month access to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate at a price of 1 euro / dollar per month.
Specifically, this new subscription method will give access to a total of 5 players to an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. As its own name suggests, this account will not only be for family use, but also with friends. Something to highlight when the industry is forced to limit the accounts when it comes to sharing them with absolute freedom.
Officially, Microsoft came to mention this new Xbox Game Pass Friends & Family plan in August 2022, but since then no other official statement has been offered. However, according to a new announcement that has been seen, it seems that Microsoft could be preparing to launch the new Game Pass subscription method soon.
5 Xbox Game Pass Ultimate users at a price that would be around 24 euros per month
Specifically, a Twitter user, @Jawmuncher, was able to take a screenshot of a new announcement of this Game Pass for “Friends and Family”. Specifically, it is indicated that the price of the plan is $39.95 per month, yes, New Zealand dollars. This in turn implies 25 dollars to changewhich could be translated in about 23.99 euros for the European market. In other words, users would pay less than 5 euros per month for their Xbox Game Pass Ultimate account, which is truly a bargain. Of course, without considering the promotion of 1 euro. After all, it was a non-cumulative promotion, and the trick was to create a new account every month, and even change payment methods.
Now it remains to be seenWhat kind of limitation will this subscription method offer?. Although it promises to be very lax, it remains to be seen if all members of the account must reside in the same country. Obviously, each account associated with the plan can be used to play at the same time, and each one will have its own gamertag (nickname), game history, achievements and saved games in the cloud. Essentially, there seem to be no restrictions, which is great news for those who want to get their friends or family to play hundreds of games for very little money. In essence, you can give it the same use as Netflix, until they lose their heads, of course.
It will be time to wait to see if Microsoft will make this announcement official after the information is leaked. If it is not today, it is logical that we shouldn’t be long to know the launch date of this new plan. And of course, with it, the final price it will have.
