Back when it was under the price of 2 games a year it was a pretty good deal. Thinking of buying the next Halo and Forza? Get gamepass and save money, and have the opportunity to try a bunch of other stuff you wouldn’t have played.

There’s amazing games like Hades and Slay the Spire that I wouldn’t have been interested enough in to purchase that are now among my favorites because Gamepass let me try them.

Honestly, I think the better route would be to keep it cheap but not include new releases. Let people access the back catalog affordably with games that aren’t brining in much new revenue anyway. People will discover games and genres they otherwise would not have played, which will create new markets and boost ssales of new releases.
