Xbox Game Pass for PC expands to 40 more countries

Earlier this year, Xbox began rolling out PC Game Pass to new countries in preview form. Now, the ‘preview' period has come to an end, with Game Pass now officially available in 40 additional countries, greatly expanding the service's reach.

PC Game Pass has seen a lot of growth in recent years and it is an area Microsoft is placing an increasing amount of focus. One area where Game Pass will improve immediately is availability. Up to now, 46 countries have had access to PC Game Pass and now, that number is growing to 86.

The list of 40 countries getting access to PC Game Pass can be found below:

• Albania
• Algeria
• Bahrain
• Bolivia
• Bosnia and Herzegovina
• Bulgaria
• Costa Rica
• Croatia
• Cyprus
• Ecuador
• Egypt
• El Salvador
• Estonia
• Georgia
• Guatemala
• Honduras
• Iceland
• Kuwait
• Latvia
• Libya
• Liechtenstein
• Lithuania
• Luxembourg
• Malta
• Moldova
• Montenegro
• Morocco
• Nicaragua
• North Macedonia
• Oman
• Panama
• Paraguay
• Peru
• Qatar
• Romania
• Serbia
• Slovenia
• Tunisia
• Ukraine
• Uruguay

Microsoft has been preaching its ability to improve access to games on a global scale in recent months and now, we are seeing that being put into practice. Just remember, while Game Pass can be used to install games through the Windows Store, you are better off using the Xbox app on PC, as it has a much nicer user interface, making it easier to find and install new games, while also having access to your friends list, party chat and cloud gaming.

KitGuru Says: Do you happen to live in one of these countries? Will you be subscribing to Game Pass now that it has become available?
