After leaking last week (and a tease this morning), Microsoft has made its latest Xbox service, dubbed "Xbox All Access", official. Taking a cue from the phone carriers, the service which is available now brings together Xbox Live, Game Pass, and a console under one subscription plan on a two-year contract.
According to Microsoft, the offer is only available for a limited time "while supplies last." But whether you're looking to hop in with an Xbox One X or and Xbox One S, both options are available. The only catch is that the offer is only available at Microsoft Retail stores; there's no online ordering available.
As for pricing, you can pay $34.99 per month to net a new 1TB Xbox One X console, along with 24 months of Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Live Gold. The 1TB Xbox One S bundle comes in quite a bit cheaper at $21.99 per month for a new console with the same 24 months of Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Live Gold included.
There's no upfront cost, but to sign up, you'll have to be approved for a Dell Preferred Account. There's also no interest applied so long as the purchase is paid in full within 24 months.
From Microsoft's description:
With Xbox All Access, get a new Xbox One S or Xbox One X, unlimited access to over 100 great games with Xbox Game Pass for 24 months, and online multiplayer with Xbox Live Gold for 24 months. That's 100+ all-you-can-play games—including new Xbox exclusives— the fastest, most reliable gaming network, and an Xbox One console for no upfront cost and one low monthly price. Available for a limited time while supplies last.
For now, at least, this offer is only available in the U.S. However, it could prove to be a valuable asset for Microsoft to pull people into the Xbox ecosystem without the barrier posed by the high upfront pricing of a console. It's also a boon for developers, as it has the potential bring an even larger player base for Xbox Game Pass.
