Microsoft Subscription Plan Could Bundle Xbox One, Xbox Live Gold, Xbox Game Pass

It used to be that back in the day, we buy a product once and we’re done. Nowadays to create a more sustainable model and to encourage developers to keep pushing out updates, companies are starting to switch to a subscription-based model. Now Microsoft has a few of their own, but they could be launching a new one soon.

According to a report from The Verge, Microsoft apparently has a new Xbox subscription bundle that they have yet to officially announce. With this monthly subscription plan, it seems that Microsoft will bundle an Xbox One console (gamers can choose the Xbox One S or the Xbox One X as well) with Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass, all of which will cost $35 a month over a 24-month period.

It should be noted that this is actually not the first time that Microsoft has launched such a bundle. Many years ago, Microsoft offered gamers a subsidized Xbox 360 when they bought it together with Xbox Live Gold. That being said, the rumored bundle will initially only be available to customers in the US, but could eventually find its way to other markets if successful.

There is no word on when this new bundle service will be launched, but we’ll keep our eyes peeled for more info.
