Rest in peace, $1 Game Pass subscription. You were of service to many gamers.
For those unaware, this deal was available for new users for the first month as a trial period before moving on to the long-term plans available for gamers. The deal applied to both Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and the PC Game Pass was pulled out by Microsoft. According to a spokesperson, the company is “evaluating different marketing promotions for new members in the future,” which is something we have to look out for in the future.
A possible replacement for this introductory deal is the Xbox Game Pass Friends and Family scheme, which was only available in some international markets since last 2022.
