📦 Game Pass Changes — The Good, the Bad, and the Weird

Xbox's Game Pass overhaul is here, and it’s… Well, very Microsoft of them... 

We would try break it down for you, but honestly, just cancel your Ultimate Subscription, drop down to the mid-tier - Premium - and you'll be saving money while missing out on Day One releases only. Or do what hundreds of others have done and just cancel your subscription all together. To say we're angry with the sudden price jump would be an understatement. 

 

💸 Xbox Series X|S Prices Go Up 📈

Further to driving fans away, Microsoft has announced a price increase for both Xbox Series X and Series S consoles. If you were to sell your secondhand Series X, you could be looking to make money. Thats how much the price of new consoles have gone up by. The company cites “market conditions”. Yeah right...

All this and more in this episode of The Regular Show.
