How the time flies. I'd totally forgotten that Xbox Game Pass Core launches tomorrow, effectively ending the "Xbox Live" brand once and for all.
Xbox Game Pass Core essentially replaces and updates Xbox Live Gold, Microsoft's subscription service for online multiplayer. The pricing structure is virtually identical to Xbox Live Gold, with a $59.99 annual cost or a $9.99 monthly cost. It also includes online multiplayer for Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S consoles, as well as exclusive deals and discounts that both Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass members will be familiar with. Users with existing Xbox Live Gold subscriptions will be automatically converted to Xbox Game Pass Core.
Xbox Live Gold was a key innovation of Microsoft that helped it solidify a place in the competitive console market alongside PlayStation and Nintendo. Since its inception, both Sony and Nintendo followed suit with their own similar services, which may have contributed to the rise of server-oriented subscription services in general. Microsoft innovated again with Xbox Game Pass, bringing Netflix-like all-you-can-eat gaming to console, PC, and mobile devices via cloud gaming, helping it maintain a unique selling point during a very dry content cycle for its platform.
Many of the best upcoming Xbox games and best upcoming PC games are also heading into Xbox or PC Game Pass on day one, which leads many to call the service "the best deal in gaming." Games like Starfield, Lies of P, Forza Motorsport, and other additions should see the service hit record numbers this quarter, although we won't know for sure how the service is doing unless Microsoft shares its figures — something it has historically been reluctant to do.
It's a tad bittersweet to see the Xbox Live brand sunsetted, but the future for Xbox clearly revolves around Xbox Game Pass, wherever you might be playing.
