Xbox Game Pass has seen improved subscriber activity following a recent price reduction, according to Xbox leader Asha Sharma. The cut, which lowered Xbox Game Pass Ultimate from £23 to £17 monthly, has increased acquisitions and retention. Sharma cautions, however, that resolving the platform's challenges will take more than one move.
Xbox CEO Asha Sharma reports positive growth and improved retention following recent Game Pass price reductions. The adjustments, made after a challenging period post-last year's price hike, are seen as a first step towards restoring durable growth. Game Pass Ultimate now costs $22.99/month, down from $29.99, with PC subscriptions reduced to $13.99 from $16.49.
Call of Duty: Warzone will cease operations on PS4 and Xbox One as Modern Warfare 4 shifts to current-gen consoles. Existing players can continue playing until Season 1 launches on October 23, after which Warzone will no longer be playable on last-gen consoles. This marks a significant milestone in the sunset of 13-year-old console generations.
