Microsoft‘s popular gaming subscription service Xbox Game Pass holds a significant place in the gaming world. Recently in the news for price increases and subscription changes, Game Pass is now preparing to introduce new subscription options to users. According to information obtained from sources by Jez Corden, editor at Windows Central, Microsoft plans to add new tiers to the Game Pass service. These new tiers include ad-supported subscriptions and subscriptions allowing only cloud access. The return of family plans is also on the agenda.

The ad-supported subscription model will be more cost-effective compared to other subscription options and is thought to appeal to users looking for an economical alternative. The ad-supported subscription model, successfully implemented by Netflix in some regions, could also be adopted by Microsoft. However, the implementation of such a subscription option is not yet confirmed.
The subscription providing cloud access could be an ideal option for users who do not plan to buy an Xbox console but want to play games online. The absence of Xbox’s cloud service in Turkey creates uncertainty about whether this service will be available in the country.
Regarding family plans, Microsoft had previously tested such subscriptions in certain countries. These plans, offering access for up to 5 people for a fixed monthly fee, were well-received by users. Expanding these plans could be an attractive option for users.
Since Microsoft has not yet officially commented on these claims, time will tell whether these new subscription options will be realized. However, the constantly evolving structure of Game Pass indicates that Microsoft will continue to innovate to meet user needs.
