Microsoft confirms that on September 14 “Game Pass Core” will replace Xbox “Live Gold”; Complete Details

Microsoft has officially announced that on September 14 a new service dubbed “Xbox Game Pass Core” would replace the “Xbox Live Gold” subscription. With this new subscription package, the business hopes to provide Xbox gamers a better gaming experience.

What Is Core For Xbox Game Pass?
Online console multiplayer is one of the features of the Xbox Game Pass Core membership, which also grants access to a sizable library of more than 25 top-notch titles, exclusive deals, and other advantages. In contrast, you are only able to play two games each month with the Live Gold membership. The best part is that the Game Pass Core membership will cost Rs 349 per month in India, the same as the Live Gold membership.

How Will Current Xbox Live Gold Subscriptions Be Affected?
When the Game Pass Core subscription becomes available, Microsoft has committed to promptly update all current Xbox Live Gold members. This means that existing Live Gold subscribers will be able to use the new plan’s enhanced benefits and game choices without paying any extra fees.

Discontinued Xbox Game Pass Friends and Family Subscription:
Microsoft has also announced the termination of the “Xbox Game Pass Friends & Family” trial membership along with this move. Starting on August 15, the program will be assessed to look into potential worldwide launch scenarios. As a consequence, primary account holders won’t be able to continue adding new users to their shared membership.

On August 15, Microsoft will start sending Xbox Game Pass Ultimate vouchers to Primary and Secondary Members. With this action, they are shown appreciation for taking part in the program and are granted ongoing access to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate’s robust features.

What Was Friends and Family on Xbox Game Pass?
Regardless of whether they lived together or not, users may sign up up to four friends and family members for the Xbox Game Pass Friends & Family preview program. Each participant gets a unique Xbox profile and account, enabling them to save games, keep track of their accomplishments, and get personalized suggestions based on their preferences.
