Microsoft has some big changes around the corner for Xbox Live and its Xbox Live Gold subscription. Here’s what it means for free-to-play Xbox games, the current state of pricing, and when you expect the shake up.
Microsoft just dropped the Xbox Live Gold requirement for free-to-play games on Xbox consoles. The move was announced back in January but has finally rolled out to everyone.
Microsoft is currently testing dropping Xbox Live Gold requirements for free-to-play games in the Xbox Insider program. There are some notable exceptions, right now, including Destiny 2 and Call of Duty: Warzone, that still need Xbox Live Gold. This should be fixed in a future update.
While Xbox Live Gold soon increases to $120 a year, you can still access old Xbox Live Gold pricing through certain retailers.
Over the past year, Microsoft phased out the 12-month $60 Xbox Live Gold option, cutting the amount of time you get for $60 in half. What is Microsoft up to here?
Xbox Live Gold is no longer going up in price. Additionally, Xbox Live Gold will no longer be required to play free-to-play games online, such as Fortnite.
Microsoft has confirmed that the price of Xbox Live Gold is going up in certain regions. This includes the U.S, which is seeing a price hike to $60 for six months of Xbox Live Gold.
Xbox Live Gold is no longer available to buy at 12-months outright from Microsoft, so what are the other options? Turns out, there are quite a lot.
Over the past few weeks, speculation has abounded that Xbox Live Gold was going away or being changed. We've reached out to Microsoft for comment and at least right now, the answer is no: Xbox Live Gold isn't changing.
Today, Microsoft announced August 2020's free Games with Gold for Xbox One and Xbox 360 owners. Starting on August 1, Portal Knights and MX Unleashed will be free with the subscription. Then, on August 16, Red Faction II and Override: Mech City Brawl can be downloaded at no cost.
Xbox Live Gold costs around $60 annually, giving users access to multiplayer matches on Xbox consoles. In a world of free to play and PC dominance, is this aging institution ready for the chopping block?
It's unclear why the company would do this, but I think it's related to the fact that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is the new king of subscriptions.
A Game Pass Ultimate subscription is an essential purchase for Xbox gamers. It includes access to Xbox Live Gold for online play and Xbox Game Pass for over 100 playable games.
