Caution, paid for the Xbox Game Pass just not so 10 € - I almost made the mistake

Xbox Game Pass (PC variation: computer Game Pass) is a Microsoft subscription service for computer game and also can be made use of with Xbox One, Xbox Series and Windows 10. The solution grants customers accessibility to a brochure of video games of different suppliers at a single monthly membership price. The solution was released on June 1, 2017, while Xbox Live gold clients received top priority on May 24. Currently, the service has 18 million clients worldwide (as of January 2021).

If you anyway interest in Xbox Game Pass (Ultimate) have, then we show you here a method that you can save a lot of money on. Our editor Patrick Freeze has now saved more than €200.

Update from January 3, 2022: This method still works and saves you real money. Just right you will find hits like Halo Infinite or Fora Horizon 5. And even one of the best games on Steam is now in Game Pass in Game Pass. The trick is worth it still right for you.

We continue with the original article of September 2020th

This happened to me: I regularly renew my membership for the Xbox Game Pass. Since my expires in a few days, now would soon be a renewal at a higher price due because of Game Pass leaves the beta.

Just when I wanted to renew my membership and even the taste of sour 10- € -Appeals in the mouth had (although it still appears fairly strong for the offer), came with us on the editorial board of Mango the issue on how to correct it can save. I tried the out and was glad, because while I have the same save a few euros in the triple digits.

The essentials in brief:

The Game Pass for PC costs in beta yet €3,99 per month, but that will change in the next few days. So then €9.99 a month overdue — in the long run, the price of the Xbox Game Pass thus increases significantly on PC. I declare to you, as I instead of 9.99 euros per month, the next 27 months only 4.33 Euro will be paid per month. And this is not just about the game pass for PC, but the Ultimate membership, which offers more advantages and can be used for Xbox and PC (normally €12.99 per month). There are also from 15 September for Ultimate members also streaming service Cloud (via Gamer), which even works on mobile devices, including. Overall, the Game Pass will also be attractive because EA Play is now part of the passport and there in future also big EA titles such as FIFA, Battlefield or Star Wars are included.

What is this offer? The Game Pass is a kind of Netflix for gamers. You pay for a subscription and have in a variety of major game firecrackers for which you need only pay the cost of service. New games such as Flight Simulator 2020 or Crusader Kings III you have to as a subscriber does not pay extra, but they can just download and play.

Already more than a year, a method of securing a favorable Xbox Game Pass Ultimate made the rounds. We betrayed you, as you will save €300 if you bring 36 months Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

The idea is that your existing Live Gold membership will be upgraded. Have you added so for example, three years Xbox Live, you can then for just one euro on the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate 1: Upgrade the first The highlight: Xbox Live, there are much cheaper and does not cost depending on the length of the credit even half?

Is that still? Now there were, players and myself unsure if this method still works in September 2020th For June 2019, the was still considered a loophole.

We tried this out for you on 12 September 2020 from Mango and can confirm: Yes, it works. Anyway Noah. How long this will work is unclear.

We present you can take advantage of the offer optimum step-by-step guide to help here.

The 3 additional months we received in our example with 2 booked years Xbox Live Gold.

The invoice for our example in detail:

2 × 12 months Live Gold — €58 (depending on offer on Amazon) = €116 (+ 2 months extra by recurring payment). 1x appreciation for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate €1 (+1 month free) Total 27 months Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for €117 — this results in a monthly price of about €4.33. Normally the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate per month costs €12,99 Calculated to 27 months the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate would usually cost €350,73. For the normal Xbox Game Pass on PC you would pay €9.99 a month. Calculated at 27 months would be €269.73. You no longer need the Game Pass for PC.

should I use the offer?

For whom pays off? First, you should make sure that you currently have no Ultimate membership. Alternatively, your new member will become a member. If you still have the Game Pass for PC, and this will soon expire, the change is worthwhile. If your Game passport for PC will be active for a few months, the currently does not pay up, because you would otherwise pay for two memberships.

If you plan to use the Xbox Game Pass for PC anyway, and at the same time also have an Xbox, then you can use this method for the Game Pass Ultimate. But even without console the purchase is worthwhile when you only play on PC and possibly even mobile.

Because here you really save a lot of money and have on the console on the gold membership. You need you for most multiplayer games if you want to gamble these online against others.

In addition, in the Game Pass Ultimate from 15 September, cloud gaming is included. For you, this means that you can gamble more than 100 games from the cloud on your Android smartphone, Windows 10 PC, Xbox console or Android tablet. For this you only need an internet connection and a compatible controller.
