Microsoft offering three months of Xbox Game Pass for PC for $1

Microsoft has kicked off a new promotion that provides three months of Xbox Game Pass for PC for only $1.

Normally, the company offers one month of the service for $1.

This deal is intended for new Game Pass subscribers. That said, it’s important to note that your mileage may vary on this. Some RedFlagDeals users report that they’ve been able to cancel their membership and successfully claim the three-month, $1 offer. Others, meanwhile, say they had no such luck.

If you are able to take advantage of it, though, it’s worth mentioning that this promotion comes amid a period of several major Xbox games coming back-to-back to Game Pass for PC, including the recently released Age of Empires IV and the upcoming Forza Horizon 5 (November 9th) and Halo Infinite (December 8th).

Altogether, there are more than 200 games available on Game Pass for PC.

Among Us to release on PlayStation, Xbox and Xbox Game Pass on December 14

Developer Innersloth has confirmed that its massively popular multiplayer game Among Us is coming to PlayStation and Xbox consoles on December 14th.

Specifically, the game will be available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox Game Pass for Console. Cross-play will also be supported between all of these platforms.

A few physical collector’s editions have also been revealed — more information on those, including pre-order links, can be found here.

Alongside Flight Simulator Game of the Year Edition, these include the Canadian co-developed Age of Empires IV (October 28th), Forza Horizon 5 (November 9th), the just-announced Minecraft Caves & Cliffs expansion and Halo Infinite (December 8th).

All of these games are launching on Game Pass on day one. The service starts at $11.99/month for an Xbox Game Pass for Console or PC membership, while a $16.99/month Game Pass Ultimate subscription includes Game Pass for Console and PC, as well as Xbox Live Gold, Cloud Gaming and EA Play.

Finally, Xbox is teasing a fun, digital broadcast on November 15th to celebrate the 20th anniversary of both Halo and the larger Xbox brand. The company confirms there won’t be any new games shown off during this stream, but it will offer “a special look back” at 20 years of Xbox. More details on specific plans for the event in the coming days, the company says.
