Earlier this week, we learned that Microsoft was reversing last year's price hike on PC Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate subscriptions. Alongside that, Microsoft also appears to be testing out ideas for new, cheaper tiers of the Game Pass service.
Dataminers like Redphx have discovered new strings on the Windows Store, referencing a new Game Pass ‘Starter Edition' tier. Interestingly, this starter edition appears to be a bundle with Discord Nitro, which confirms recent leaks claiming that Microsoft was in talks with other subscription providers to discuss bundle ideas.
This new Starter Edition of Game Pass would give users access to both Discord Nitro and a smaller Game Pass library consisting of 50 titles. On top of that, subscribers to this tier of Game Pass would also get ten hours of cloud gaming time per month.
This starter edition bundle including both Game Pass and Discord Nitro makes sense, as Microsoft has been looking to collaborate with Discord even further to replace its own Xbox social tools.
KitGuru Says: Do you think a Discord / Game Pass bundle would be successful?
