I've been a PC game pass subscriber since they started it up and haven't been disappointed. I honestly think it's one of the best values in gaming right now. Not every game on game pass is something you're going to love, but they have big depth and variety and a commitment to NEW releases, no waiting years for big titles like PS+ (to be clear, I own a PS4 and a PC, no actual Xbox).

so quick question does it immediately jump to 5$ or is it 1$ while in beta? the promotion material isn't entirely clear to me

anyway yeah seems great value even if it's for two AAA from the whole catalogue you come ahead quite fast.

GP is not in beta, the $1 is a promo. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-game-pass#join is clear I think. $5/mo is also temporary.

game pass isn't beta, but pc game pass clearly is labelled as such https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/xbox-game-pass-for-pc-beta...

Ah. The app is, but the service itself isn't.
