Games pass is just growing stronger, with Xbox giving all their exclusives and even bringing back some of the old beauties of the 360 era, such as Halo or Gears of War. This way you never have to worry about a favourite game being removed. On the bright side games pass offers discounts of up to 20% on any game currently in the existing catalogue, if you decide you don’t want to risk losing a most beloved game you can buy it at a discount. The digital aspect means that at any time and without warning a game can be removed, although with the over populated gaming market at the moment it would be hard not to find a replacement. This is really just a nit-pick, I imagine most people do not have an issue with only having access to the digital copy. Though, I would argue: who would actually rent a game instead of just downloading it? I mean you got to download it anyway when the disk arrives. Xbox games pass is all digital, so for anyone looking to rent a hard copy this can be off-putting. Like Netflix the games can be taken off and news games are constantly being added, meaning there’s always something new that you will want to play. This means the newest titles, as well as old gems.

Xbox games pass was first introduced in 2017 and is a monthly subscription that allows access to hundreds of games, including all Xbox exclusives. As a PC and Xbox gamer, the Xbox games pass holds more value to me, therefore in this article I will address its perks and drawbacks, (all of which will probably apply to PlayStation Now anyway).

Now, before any one rages or calls foul for me not mentioning PlayStation Now, well I just did. Xbox player or not, by now you will have heard of the Xbox games pass.
