PC Gamepass (formerly Xbox Game Pass for PC), now includes EA Play! [XGP:PC]

I'm confused as to what happens with cross play titles. I can already play the likes of Forza on PC with my Xbox subscription. It doesn't sound like it's one sub that'll provide access to the Xbox and PC library.

 

Tell ya what. I'll buy a WinStore version as long as you keep improving the mess of a UI and install process, and you give a discount on the order of what GabeN or Sweeney claws from you anyway on other stores.

ahem.

 

The naming(Xbox Game Pass for PC) tells me it's 2 different subscriptions & 2 different libraries. There may still be some titles that are available on both due to the Xbox Anywhere initiative. But sadly it looks like(if Halo MCC on PC is an indication) there might be fewer Xbox Anywhere titles going forward.

Unless things have changed they said they was looking into it.

I expect that the play anywhere titles will still work as is.

It isn't clear how the subscriptions behave in relation to each other.
Maybe Xbox gamepass ultimate will give you access to both PC and XBOX. It may cost more than PC due to inclusion of live so why not.

 

I like that they have stated their desire to release MS published titles on PC simultaneously on Steam. More choice is good. Would be nice if GoG was also included with that, but I'm not sure if MS are comfortable with GoG being DRM free.

I wonder if Halo CE in there will be the GearBox's PC port, or a port of the Xbox360's port of GearBox's port in Anniversarumy edition, or if it will be XboxOne's port of the Xbox360's port of the PC port in MCC, or maybe they will use the PC MCC version which is a PC port of the XboxOne port of the Xbox360 port of the PC port.

 

since I got used to the WinStore, I wouldn't complain as much as you, but it has some issues. Some games dont run for whatever inane reason you can think of.

My Xbox app runs just fine but Killer Instinct always says that I am not logged in into Xbox Live.

Gears of War 4, which I recently purchased works perfectly fine, so does Age of Empires Definitive Edition. But Killer Instinct? I don't know what's the issue with it, it gives me an odd 0x8800215 error or something like that and I am theoretically not connected to Xbox Live

 

Troubleshooting Steps:

1. Remove orangpelupa's cat from inside your PC.
2. Remove orangpelupa's cat from the top of your PC.
3. Remove orangpelupa's cat from the outside of your PC.
4. Have you tried turning it off and on again?

 

The orangpelupa's cat or the personal cat PC?

 

Kojima turned off konami's office cat and we all know how that went on.

 

I wonder if the Win32 support for the Windows Store was largely driven by the need to sign more games for this service without having to require devs to go through the effort of making UWP versions...

 

Metro Exodus included on XBox Game Pass PC:

Also, not sure if this was mentioned here before, but it seems Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is the combination of all three:

1. Xbox Live Gold
2. Xbox Game Pass Console
3. Xbox Game Pass PC

Price confirmed for Xbox Game Pass on PC
Confirmed games include We Happy Few, Forza Horizon 4, and Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.

Ahead of this evening's E3 conference, a new page on the Microsoft store confirms details and pricing for the Xbox Game Pass on PC for Windows 10 players: £4 GBP / $5 USD a month. [ EDIT: The $5 a month is BETA pricing. After the BETA period it's $10 a month. ]

The pass includes a library of 100+ games to dip into (although it should be noted that the library on Xbox One is almost double that) including We Happy Few, Forza Horizon 4, Hello Neighbor, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, Sea of Thieves Anniversary Edition, and State of Decay 2.

Gears 5, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, and Ori and the Blind Forest are listed as "coming soon" to the PC library.

 

Price looks good.
Ultimate looks like it will be a really good deal especially if xcloud gets rolled into it (in my theory via gold).
Play on console, pc and stream.
Would really be pulling pc gamers into Xbox ecosystem at this pc gamepass price.
Carrot not stick approach.

 

PC game pass also available now

 

this one is the best! First month 1€, then it's 3.99€/month.

with Xbox Game Pass I wonder what's the point of having a Xbox. The games are superb. Metro Exodus for 1€ -thanks Epic!-, Marvel vs Capcom Infinite, Wolfenstein 2, Wasteland 2....

Lots of strategy games, the kind of games console gamers find hard to digest, like Imperator: Rome and Tyranny Gold Edition...

I am hyped about the new Xbox, but this is best news for me.

 

Basically the same list that was available with xbox game pass anyway, but this is much cheaper, so when my £1 trail finishes of game pass, I will sign up for this for sure.
