Le Xbox Game Pass has become the core of Microsoft's gaming strategy. The publisher's strong licenses and unmissable games are available there from the day of their release and at attractive prices.

A strategy that pays off and attracts more and more players, as evidenced by the latest figures from Microsoft.

25 million Game Pass subscribers

This is a figure that is likely to increase considerably in the coming months. On the sidelines of the announcement of the historic takeover of Activision Blizzard, for the trifle of 70 billion, Microsoft communicated the number of current Xbox Game Pass subscribers. The must-have service now has more than 25 million followers, up from 18 million in January 2021, a 28% growth over last year.



"With Activision Blizzard's approximately 400 million monthly active players in 190 countries and franchises worth billions of dollars, this acquisition will make Game Pass one of the most engaging and diverse gaming content offerings in the industry. industry,” Microsoft comments in a blog post. 

It must be said that the catalog had already expanded with the arrival of Bethesda in the Microsoft team thanks to strong licenses such as Fallout, Wolfenstein, The Elder Scrolls or even DOOM. With the acquisition of Activision-Blizzard, the "Netflix of video games" has a bright future ahead of it. Imagine accessing Call of Duty, Overwatch 2 or Diablo 4 the day they are released on Xbox Game Pass for only 9,99 euros per month. To see how Sony will manage to keep up with its probable competing offer.
