Xbox Game Pass: A Comprehensive Guide to Tiers, Games, and Genres
Xbox Game Pass provides a vast library of games for both console and PC, including day-one access to new releases. This guide explores its various tiers, subscription options, and game selection categorized by genre.
Understanding Xbox Game Pass Tiers
Xbox Game Pass offers three tiers with escalating prices and benefits: Standard, Core, and Ultimate. All tiers operate on a monthly subscription basis. To locate specific games, use Ctrl/Cmd + F (keyboard) or your browser's "Find In Page" function.
Xbox PC Game Pass
Priced at $9.99 per month, Xbox PC Game Pass offers hundreds of PC games, day-one access to new releases, and member discounts. It also includes EA Play, providing access to select EA titles, in-game rewards, and trials. Note: Online multiplayer and cross-platform play may be limited for some games.
Xbox Console Game Pass
The standard console version, costing $10.99 monthly, includes hundreds of console games, day-one access, and member discounts. However, online multiplayer and cross-platform play may be restricted, and EA Play is not included.
Xbox Core Game Pass
Exclusive to consoles, Xbox Core Game Pass ($9.99/month) offers online multiplayer (unlike the standard console pass) but features a curated selection of 25 games instead of the full catalog. EA Play is not included.
Xbox Ultimate Game Pass
The premium tier ($16.99/month) for both PC and console, encompasses all benefits from lower tiers (online multiplayer, EA Play). It adds Cloud Saving and Membership Perks.
