Xbox Game Pass is getting a Friends and Family subscription, with the prices leaking online ahead of an official release. For those wondering whether it’s worth buying, here’s a breakdown of the Xbox Game Pass Friends and Family price and value potential.
Is Xbox Game Pass Family and Friends worth it?
Xbox Game Pass Family and Friends is worth it, even if you’re sharing it with just one other person. The biggest value is seen when three or more people use the service, however.
The Xbox Family and Friends price has leaked in New Zealand. The leaked price is NZD 39.95 a month, equivalent to $25/£20. While the final US/UK price may vary, they shouldn’t be far off these estimates.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate retails for $14.99/£10.99. This means that the Family and Friends subscription is about the same value if you share it with just one other person and better value if you share it with three or more. If you share it with the maximum amount of five people, each person would pay NZD 8 or $5/£4 a month.
Game Pass Family and Friends includes everything in the Game Pass Ultimate subscription but can be shared with up to five people.
