Xbox Game Pass Is Reportedly Adding A Family Plan
Years after its initial launch, Xbox Game Pass is at long last adding a family plan, allowing multiple accounts to be attached to a single membership. Game Pass has been a massive part of Xbox's overall strategy, even inspiring its competitors in the gaming world to emulate the model-- something that Xbox has cheekily called out.
Generally speaking, Game Pass has been a critical and commercial success for Xbox. The subscription service that lets gamers access a sprawling catalog of popular AAA titles and indie darlings has been a feather in Microsoft's gaming cap since its rollout and has continued to expand ever since. As Game Pass's library of games grows, so does its user base, as both novice and hardcore gamers have found the service to be a convenient and cost-effective way to try out a number of different titles. Game Pass is also tied to xCloud, a beta game-streaming service that grants users cloud access to a number of games via devices like tablets, smartphones, and laptops-- the Steam Deck can even run the Game Pass streaming platform. All these factors and more have brought a number of gamers to the Xbox ecosystem.

It is currently unclear how this Family Plan will involve PC players versus those using Game Pass on Xbox consoles.
