Xbox Game Pass - Why it's worth it for PC gamers

With over 400 games in the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, this is becoming more and more interesting. The games can not only be played on the Xbox or the PC, but almost on any device. 
Almost every PC player probably knows it: The Steam library is bursting with games and most of them are either unplayed or have only minutes to hours of playtime. Especially with the rising prices for Steam games and console games, this will become very expensive in the long run. 

Microsoft on the Expansion Path

Anyone who has observed the video game market more closely in recent times will certainly have noticed that Microsoft is almost in a buying frenzy. This refers to game developer studios.

 Although the software giant is not alone in this, as Amazon and Netflix are also increasingly moving into the video game market and acquiring developers and publishers, no one can keep up with the current scope and quality of Xbox Game Pass. 

The Game Pass includes some interesting indie games, but also large AAA titles. So far, Halo Infinite, Total War: Warhammer 3, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Outer Worlds, Hades, Prey or Frostpunk could be played. But upcoming titles like High on Life or Atomic Heart will be available on the day of their release in the Xbox Game Pass.

So if you like to test new games or just play a lot of different games in general, then the Xbox Game Pass is worth a look for you. It is even possible to stream games and play Xbox games without an Xbox. Even streaming to your smartphone is possible.
