Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass prices drop in the UK

Earlier this week, Microsoft confirmed that it would be unwinding last year's Game Pass price hike, reducing the price for both Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. Now, the UK price changes have been confirmed. 

As we know already, over in the US, Game Pass Ultimate is coming down from $30 per month to $23 per month. Here in the UK, that works out to £16.99 per month under the new pricing structure.

PC Game Pass, the version of Game Pass exclusively for PC platforms, is the only non-Ultimate version of Game Pass to still include day-one first-party games like Fable, Forza Horizon 6 and Halo Campaign Evolved. Here in the UK, the service will drop in price to £10.99 per month, essentially putting both Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass back at the pricing tiers they were at this time last year.

To help keep Game Pass prices down moving forward, Call of Duty will no longer be a day-one release on Game Pass. Instead, Game Pass subscribers will have to wait one year to get their hands on the game, indicating that previous reports about lower COD sales this year were accurate.

KitGuru Says: With Game Pass prices coming back down, I may reconsider subscribing for this year's slate of titles, like Fable, Gears E-Day and Forza Horizon 6.
