XBOX GAME PASS ULTIMATE... DIVIDE & CONQUER? GEARS OF WAR 5 .. Decisive or Derisive?

It actually costs less to subscribe to Game Pass Ultimate, than to subscribe to 2 separate services(Game Pass + Xbox Live Gold).

Example:

Xbox Live Gold($69.99/yearly subscription) + Game Pass($11.99/mo.) = $213.87/yr.*

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate($16.99/mo.) = $203.88/yr.*

There is also a current promotion for Game Pass Ultimate "Get first 2 months for $2":

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate($2.00/2mo.) + ($16.99/mo.) = $171.90/yr*

*The above example is Canadian pricing.

Additionally, if you are already an active subscriber to Xbox Game Pass and/or Xbox Live Gold, your first purchase of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate automatically upgrades your existing memberships to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate(up to a max. of 36 months).

For example, if you have 6 months of Xbox Live Gold and 6 months of Xbox Game Pass remaining on your account when you purchase your first month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, it will also convert your existing memberships to Ultimate, making a total of 13 months
of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. That's a pretty sweet deal right there!

Even if you don't game on PC, these savings alone should be enough incentive to purchase Game Pass Ultimate..... and you still have the added bonus of PC gaming, if you ever desire to do so in the future.

Save yourself some money, get access to Gears 5 Ultimate Edition and all its content, plus 4 day early access.

Go Ultimate, you owe it to yourself!

Hey xxxTimburyxxx

Thank You for taking the time for taking interests enough to reply, 'doing the math, running the numbers and giving such a positive endorsement. I have actually been wavering ever-so slightly in favour of opting for my own fulfillment and dare i say the
'realization' of the gain that I'd receive with all the incentives that are being offered now , of which you very clearly illustrated... & I'm willing to believe that they " play earlier access " will most likely be extended to other future titles as
well . It's still somewhat provoking to me to be made to feel like those who are in a similar position as i find myself to be regarding to Go Ultimate or NOT are either having " golden carrots " dangled above their heads or ever -so politely being Snubbed
.lol

Now with being said & with the benefit of having achieved better competitive Rates as a savvy consumer who doesn't mind researching & sourcing substantially lower rates for both Gold and Gampass via Official Prepaid cards for both... Hence my own
cost for memberships are usually consistently better by far ...But I'm very much considering Upgra... rather, Converting to the new Recipe ..Pretty sure that the Closer that we are to the ' Earlier" release of Gears will be a very strong Tell ..

thanks

Ive went for the ultimate games pass as i was paying for both gold and game pass separate. It saved money for me and has the added bonus of the pc games but i wont be using that personally, just in it for saving money with both subscription fees and game
purchases

I think having that choice to play a brand new game without paying that hefty price tag of £80 or $99 gives gamers that leeway to try and test properly without any time constraints like games used to have in demo or beta form. I love this method because
it also gives the option to play xbox games on PC giving it that cross platform feel not having to rely on just having that one console when you don't have to choose with Game Pass Ultimate.

Whilst I see your point on not needing the PC part of Game Pass Ultimate. It still offers a reduction in subscription cost between seperate services of Live Gold and Game Pass.

4 days are going to pass in the blink of the eye dear friend. But, the important thing is that you will enjoy our beloved game for 444 more days.
