Xbox continues to innovate within the industry, it is now possible to join and try the Xbox Game Pass Friends & Family, an accessible way to enjoy the best service on the market.
Hoy has been formalized, users residing in Ireland and Colombia can now modify and purchase the subscription, as well as invite the 5 people who can join and share this service. It was something Xbox had been working on for some time, with the illusion of being able to create an ecosystem so that families and friends could share all the benefits with a single payment. For the moment, it is in the test phase in these two countries, but it will expand over the months.
It’s that easy to share the Xbox Game Pass Friends & Family plan
What you need to know before buying it is everything it includes, as its price varies. This plan brings with it all the current benefits of Game Pass Ultimate, namely: EA Play, cloud service, Gold, games on Xbox and PC and new titles every month. Prices for Colombia and Ireland are respectively $49,900 COP and $21.99 EUR.
How to subscribe?
With the Xbox Game Pass Friends & Family plan, you can form parties of up to 5 users, with the owner making payment to their account and inviting 4 members to join. In this way, everyone will be able to enjoy the same benefits of the holder without paying more.
To join groups, you must register in the Microsoft Store and send requests to the owner by email. Of course, there are several recommendations and limitations of the service:
- You can only be a member of one group at a time.
- There is a limit of groups per year, if you join one more than 2 times you will not be able to do so in another, or in the same one until a year has passed.
