Can I extend Game Pass Ultimate by Buying More Live Time?

toomuchgame4u · Nov 7, 2019

My Game Pass Ultimate expires tomorrow and I would like to extend it by getting more Live time if this is possible. I have read about how you can buy Live time first and then subscribe Game Pass to convert all of the Live time to Game Pass time. I however
did not do this as I didn't know about it before buying 2 months of Game Pass for $2.

So can I extend Game Pass Ultimate by buying some Live Gold time, or will I need to subscribe to Live and then buy more Game Pass time if I want access to its games?

No, that was a promotion for upgrading to Game Pass Ultimate. What you need to do is renew your Game Pass Ultimate subscription.

Hello toomuchgame4u,

Thank you for posting on Xbox Forums. In regards to this question, as stated by Smwutches, you have the ability to add Xbox Live Gold or
regular Game Pass while you have Game Pass Ultimate active. If you redeem codes for either Gold or Game Pass it will extend the time for Game Pass ultimate but it won't extend it using the time you purchase it will convert it. An example of the conversion
ratio would be if you purchased 12 months of Xbox Live it will be converted to 4 months of Game Pass Ultimate. For more information on this please view the conversion chart on the
Game Pass Ultimate FAQ.

If you have any other questions please feel free to reply back letting us know. Thank you again for posting on Xbox Forums.

You can add prepaid gold or game pass codes while you're on Ultimate and it will extend your time, but at a different conversion rate (which you can find in the

FAQ). So if you were to add a 12 month gold, you would extend your Ultimate by 4 months.

If it's your first ultimate, it extends a month but I would recommend you, buy more months and transform them

Does that mean that if i buy a 12 month gold subscription and then upgrade to Ultimate, i can have game pass for 12 months as well? And yes that's my first ultimate.

If you want just game pass for them, one account must buy the game pass and be set as homebox. Then they can share game pass as same as live. But only on one console. College mentioned game pass ultimate. It is a good option. If you sign for ultimate,
they will have a month or two of ultimate, and all they Live converted to ultimate. For example. If you buy 2 months ultimate (there is an offer for 2 bucks now) and they have 5 months of Live, they will get 7 months of Game pass ultimate that includes game
pass. Live, and game pass for pc. If you buy with auto-renewal option, they will get one more month. If you don't like it, just wait for the period to pass, and then return to Live and game pass. Never cancel Ultimate, because you will lose remaining Live
time. There is no family pass.
