If you aren’t familiar with the Xbox Game Pass, it is a subscription service that launched in June 2017, and offers its subscribers unlimited access to over 100 games for $9.99 USD monthly. These titles include popular backward compatible Xbox 360 games, as well as some recent Xbox One hits. The subscription allows players to download and play any of the games available offline for the whole month. Microsoft has stated that they will be adding at least 5 new games each month, as well as occasionally removing titles as a way to keep the Xbox Game Pass fresh and fun.
On top of these new titles being added to the Xbox Game Pass service, Microsoft is offering a 14 day trial for anyone who has not yet tried it. And those who are currently subscribed get an added bonus too! Xbox Game Pass members save 20% on Xbox One game purchases, and 10% on all add-ons, however the discounts are only available for games that are currently in the Game Pass catalog. Xbox 360 games are not available for discounts either.
