![]() ![]() I guess we can use Netflix as a comparison point here, and I’ll just go with “Standard” Netflix pricing. Game Pass Ultimate, which includes Xbox Live, is $15 a month, though you can get discounts through bundles. Spencer recently confirmed that Game Pass is 10-15% of Microsoft’s gaming revenue, and is profitable, but what if…it was more profitable? Hence, a price increase. While prices have remained locked for Game Pass almost since its inception, like with all subscription services, that seems subject to change, especially with current economic conditions. If you subscribed at any point previously, however, you’ll be charged a $14.99 / £10.99 / AU$15.95 fee (the price of one month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate).As for Xbox Game Pass, that’s a different story. If you’re totally new to the service, you’ll be charged a $1 / £1 / AU$1 upgrade fee to convert all of your Gold membership into Game Pass Ultimate. ![]() Head over to the Xbox Live Gold upgrade page (opens in new tab) and tap that big green upgrade button. It can be a little cumbersome – redeeming a code, turning on auto-renewal, turning off auto-renewal, and going again – but If you do so for all nine codes you’ll end up with 36 months of Xbox Live Gold tied to your account. ![]() You can probably guess where this is headed: follow the same steps for every Gold code you have. Once that’s all done, head to the Xbox Live Gold section (opens in new tab) of your Microsoft account and turn off automatic billing. Go ahead and do that to receive four months for the price of three. Each time you redeem a code, you’ll be offered an option to turn on automatic billing for an extra month of Gold. Log in to your account, head over to the redemption page (opens in new tab), and plug your codes in. Once you’ve snapped them up, you’ll need to redeem them on the Microsoft site. If you want the full 36 months of Game Pass Ultimate, buy nine of those three month codes (the arithmetically minded will know that nine multiplied by three does not equal 36 – bear with me). The key-selling website is currently offering (opens in new tab) three month installments of Xbox Live Gold for $7.39 / £5.99 / AU$11.69 – a hefty 70% discount on its usual retail price. As for how you can bag Gold super cheap, CDKeys has a particularly remarkable deal. ![]()
