"Microsoft is making some big changes to Game Pass, as the subscription service is being streamlined across three "upgraded" tiers: Essential, Premium, and Ultimate. The biggest immediate change is an influx of new games across all three tiers, as Microsoft has added Ubisoft+ Classics and dozens of other titles like Hogwarts Legacy and Diablo 4. All of these games are available today, and Game Pass Premium (formerly Standard) subscribers can check out over 40 new games."
"In total, Game Pass Premium will have over 200+ titles to play across console and PC, and Microsoft's first-party games will launch on this tier within a year of their initial release date. The only exception here is Call of Duty, as you'll need a Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass subscription to access them on launch day, unless you plan to purchase them directly. The price for Game Pass Premium will continue to be $15 a month."
"So what else is changing here? For Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, Microsoft claims that the 50% price increase will allow for the "biggest upgrade yet" with this program, as the company has promised more day-one games, access to Fortnite Crew and Ubisoft+ Classics, and enhanced Xbox Cloud Gaming streaming quality up to 1440p."
Microsoft streamlines Game Pass into three upgraded tiers: Essential, Premium, and Ultimate. Ubisoft+ Classics and dozens of titles including Hogwarts Legacy and Diablo 4 are added across all tiers. Game Pass Premium offers over 200 titles on console and PC, with more than 40 new games immediately available; Microsoft first-party games will reach Premium within a year of release except Call of Duty, which requires Ultimate or PC Game Pass at launch or purchase. Premium remains $15 per month. Ultimate increases price by 50% and adds more day-one games, Fortnite Crew and Ubisoft+ Classics access, and improved cloud streaming up to 1440p. Core subscribers move to Essential, which keeps 50+ curated games at $10 per month.
