Hey Insiders, let’s talk Game Pass! Starting today, we’re offering Xbox Insiders the opportunity to try out and provide feedback on our new membership, Xbox Game Pass Standard.
We’ve created a new membership option in the Game Pass family to give players more choice in how they discover and play games, offering different pricing and plans so players can find what works best for them. For those looking for a larger library of hundreds of games to play on their console and want all the benefits of Game Pass Core, including multiplayer access, Game Pass Standard may be the right option. Game Pass Standard also includes select member offers and discounts, including up to 50% off select games.
Hundreds of great games will be available with Game Pass Standard at launch. Players will get access to select titles as part of the new Game Pass Standard library, with more games added throughout the preview period. Once you join the preview, you can browse the Game Pass Standard library to find your next favorite game.
During this Xbox Insiders preview, you can sign up for just $1. Any renewals during the preview period will also cost $1 per month. At launch, Game Pass Standard will be available for $14.99 per month (Prices vary depending on the market).
If you’re looking for other console membership options, Game Pass Core offers a select collection of over 25 Game Pass games, online multiplayer access, and select member offers and discounts. Game Pass Standard includes everything available in Game Pass Core, plus hundreds of great games. If you’re looking for those benefits, plus day-one titles, specific entries in the Game Pass Ultimate library, access to EA Play, cloud gaming, perks, quests, and additional discounts on games in the Game Pass library, Game Pass Ultimate may be the best option for you.
Some games added to Game Pass Ultimate (day-one games or other game entries) will not be immediately available with Game Pass Standard and may be added to the library at a later date (may take up to 12 months or more and varies by title). We will continue to let all Game Pass members know when games are added and become playable on each plan.
To participate in the Insider Preview, visit the Xbox Insider app in the Microsoft Store to read the terms and conditions. Game Pass Core members with less than 2 months of funds on their account, as well as Game Pass players for console and PC Game Pass players who are part of the Xbox Insider program, can participate and share their feedback.
As always, we want to say a huge thank you to all of our Insiders – you are a wonderful community and we love to hear your feedback. If you are an Xbox Insider looking for support, join our community on the Xbox Insider SubredditOfficial Xbox staff, moderators, and other Xbox Insiders are here to help you.
We’re excited to hear from those who join Game Pass Standard during the preview, and we’ll share more on availability for all players soon!
