Gamepass ultimate or gamepass only?

Xbox gamepass ultimate is allows for.multiplayer

Gamepass does not hence why it's cheaper

If you.did 3 months for.1 dollar deal thats only gamepaSs

And you would've.had to have gold .

separately to play games online

Gamepass allows you to download games.but not.play multiplayer

And cloud gaming is only available to the subscriber of gamepass ultimate not sub accounts until the family plans come out supposedly this summer

Thanks ngocphi, yes I have Game Pass Ultimate.

On the kids accounts it used to let them download games and play them but now it asks in their accounts to subscribe to game pass.

Xbox series S. It tells me I need to purchase the game to play it. My Gamepass ultimate is current.

Yeah but I don't want to buy ultimate or GamePass Core. I Bought the game before GamePass Core. So why can't I just play the Game?😭😭
