WIN A 12-month Xbox Game Pass
We are a family of gamers and it's normally fairly easy to find a gift at Christmas or on a birthday because there's always a new game release available. But buying games throughout the year can become expensive so, thanks to a fantastic collaboration with Smyths Toys here's the ultimate present... the XBox Game Pass and I've got one for you to win in time for Christmas!
First I've got the lowdown and some FAQs on the XBox Game Pass. Have a read through and then enter the competition below.
What is Xbox Game Pass library?
The Xbox Game Pass can be described as a 'Netflix for video games'. It is a subscription service available to customers to purchase a multitude of games at a set cost each month. The Game Pass library includes over 100 great Xbox One and Xbox 360 backward compatible titles including Forza Motorsport 7, Disneyland Adventures, Sea of Thieves and Halo. A Game Pass allows you access to the library to download and play all games. This continues until your subscription is cancelled or expires, or a game leaves the Game Pass catalogue. You can buy a pass as a gift for one person or the whole family!
How does Game Pass work?
- Visit www.microsoft.com/redeem where you sign in to or create your profile
- Redeem your 25-character prepaid Game Pass code
- Browse the Xbox Game Pass catalogue or visit your Xbox dashboard.
- Install your choice of games.
- Play as much as you want, whenever you want.
Why buy the Game Pass?
- You can play new Xbox exclusives the day they launch.
- You have access 100+ Xbox One and Xbox 360 backward compatible games on your Xbox One.
- You can play Xbox Play Anywhere games on your Windows PC and Xbox One.
- You can buy subscriptions one month, six months or twelve months and play as much as you want
What happens if your game leaves the library?
If your game leaves the library you will need a physical or digital copy of your game to continue playing. As a Game Pass member, you can save up to 20% off the purchase price of Game Pass games and 10% off downloadable content.
What is the difference between Live Gold and Game Pass?
Xbox Game Pass gives you unlimited access to over 100 Xbox One and Xbox 360 backward compatible games. The important thing is that you don't need Xbox Live Gold to be able to use Xbox Game Pass but you can use XBox Live gold to play with your friends online.
So that's all the important stuff out of the way. Do you still want the chance to win a 12-month XBox Game Pass worth £55? Of course you do!
