Xbox Live Gold, the essential subscription service that Xbox gamers have always needed to access online multiplayer on their consoles, is potentially undergoing a transformation into ‘Game Pass Core’.
An article by Windows Central revealed this information before it was taken down, but you can still find the details here.
According to the article, starting from September 1st, Xbox Live Gold will be replaced by Game Pass Core. The pricing will remain the same at $9.99 per month, and existing Xbox Live Gold subscribers will receive an equivalent amount of Game Pass Core subscription time.
Moreover, they will have access to a collection of over 25 games from the Game Pass library, including:
- Among Us
- Descenders
- Dishonored 2
- DOOM Eternal
- Fable Anniversary
- Fallout 4
- Fallout 76
- Forza Horizon 4
- Gears 5
- Grounded
- Halo 5: Guardians
- Halo Wars 2
- Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice
- Human Fall Flat
- INSIDE
- Ori and the Will of the Wisps
- Psychonauts 2
- State of Decay 2
- Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited
On the other hand, the Games with Gold program (which provides free games to Xbox Live Gold subscribers) will also come to an end on September 1st. However, any games acquired through Games with Gold in previous years will still be accessible to users. Additionally, Game Pass Core subscribers will have access to special membership deals and discounts.
In other Game Pass news, Microsoft has announced that the preview of the Game Pass Ultimate Friends and Family Plan will conclude on August 15th. The announcement suggests that it is uncertain if and when this plan will become a permanent offering.
