For existing Xbox Game Pass subscribers and newcomers, Woot has a deal that will knock you over 20% off the regular price. Now through the end of the month — or “until sold out,” according to Woot’s page — you can three months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for $34.49 (23% off the list price of $44.99) or one month for $11.79 (21% off the usual price of $14.99).
If you want to stock up for a full year (i.e. buy four three-month codes), that will cost you around $138, which in turn saves you around $42 on the usual price. In other words, that’s buying 12 months of Game Pass Ultimate for the price of nine months. Note that there is a limit of 24 codes per customer, so for those who want to go completely outyou can now take advantage of a discounted Game Pass membership until July 2030. That may be an exaggeration, but we’re not the ones to judge.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is the top tier of Microsoft’s gaming subscription service, giving you unlimited access to a very, very large catalog of games on both Xbox and Windows PC, as well as discounts on titles you want to add to your permanent collection. The Ultimate tier also includes EA Play membership for select games from that publisher’s catalog, including trials of select games for up to 10 hours apiece, and access to Xbox Cloud Gaming — perfect for when you’d rather just jump into a game without waiting for a download. It’s also great if you prefer to game on a non-Xbox device, including mobile and (soon) a Fire TV Stick.
