Xbox reportedly plans an à la carte overhaul of Game Pass

[Joel71]

Game Pass could be about to change dramatically. Pure Xbox's Fraser Gilbert reports on Fortune's claim that Xbox is planning a major overhaul of the subscription, letting players choose features a la carte

According to people familiar with the strategy, the add ons would include console only games, cloud gaming and multiplayer, inside a tiered structure. The details are vague, and Pure Xbox has not been able to confirm the report

Pure Xbox points out that the new cloud gaming time limits, with paid extra hours for Game Pass members, look like an early step towards this model. We discussed those limits earlier this week

Readers in the comments were mostly sceptical. Many expect that splitting features into add ons will mean higher prices overall, especially for Ultimate subscribers who currently get everything

A la carte sounds like more choice, but subscription changes like this often end up costing loyal customers more. Xbox is clearly under pressure to make Game Pass profitable. How the pricing works will decide whether players accept it

Would you prefer to pick Game Pass features individually? And do you expect it to cost more overall?
