Last year, Microsoft increased the price of Xbox Game Pass to “offer players more flexibility, value and choice” but many fans weren’t impressed. Defending the price hike, Microsoft’s Director of Gaming and Platform Communications Dustin Blackwell said: “We understand price increases are never fun for anybody, but we’re trying to reinforce by adding more value to these plans as well,” he explained. “It’s something we don’t take lightly, and we’re listening to the feedback of players and the community to try to provide them with more of what they’re asking for.”
