According to a recent statement from Microsoft via The Verge, the long-running $1 Game Pass Ultimate monthly subscription trial rate has been discontinued, as the company is “evaluating different marketing promotions for new members.” The introductory rate allowed new subscribers to try the monthly Xbox Game Pass, Game Pass Ultimate, and PC Game Pass plan for $1.
Kari Perez, head of global communications at Xbox told The Verge:
“We have stopped our previous introductory offer for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass and are evaluating different marketing promotions for new members in the future.”
