BREAKING:#XboxGamePass

The Friends & Family plan has started to be advertised in the US via the PC Xbox app!

This could signal an imminent launch, and with the rumored Xbox Showcase on the 25th, I’d expect news there!

As you may recall, theXbox Friends & Family Game Pass tier launched back in September last year in Columbia and Ireland. The Xbox Friends & Family Plan allows up to five individual users—each with their own account and gamer profile—access to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate under one membership, whether they are under the same roof or not. And all for a discounted price relative to having separate Game Pass memberships.

It seems likely that this could be announced during the upcomingXbox and Bethesda Developer_Direct showcase event, which will be broadcast on January 25th.
