Gaming, whether you like it or not is massive across the globe, and as time goes on, it's only getting bigger and better. I remember being a young child when myself and my little brother Jamie was gifted our first non-handheld gaming console, and how things have advanced since then. In partnership with Smyths Toys Superstores, this post will tell you everything you need to know about the Xbox Game Pass, plus one lucky person will win a 12 month Xbox Game Pass!
Back when I was a child, the only way you could play games was by having the physical disk or cartridge, however, nowadays playing games come in a variety of ways, so different to the ways us old school gamers know how to play. Gone are the days where you would worry about scratching the disks or losing small cartridges, in are the days of streaming, downloading and online game playing.
What Is Xbox Game Pass?
Xbox Game Pass is a subscription service available to customers to purchase multiple games at a set cost each month, or you can buy a 1 month, 3 months or 12 months gift card for Game Pass.
The Game Pass library includes over 100 great Xbox One and Xbox 360 backward compatible titles including Forza Motorsport 7, Disneyland Adventures, Sea of Thieves, Halo plus many more. There are games for all ages and categories, so it's no wonder it can be described as the Netflix of video games.
A Game Pass allows you access to the library to download and play all games, this continues until your subscription is cancelled/expires, or a game leaves the Game Pass catalogue. If your game does leave the library you will need a physical or digital copy of your game to continue playing. As a Game Pass member, you can save up to 20% off the purchase price of Game Pass games. Plus, 10% off DLCs.
