Microsoft’s biggest launch, maybe one of the biggest launches on Android is finally here! The most awaited Xbox Game Pass on Android is now officially released and has dropped its complete version. You can download it from your respective App Stores. Who would miss out on playing fully-fledged console games on your mobile screens? Me neither! So, in this article, we will cover all the necessary details of this new release!
About Xbox Game Pass
This is a feature for Android users who are keen to play those fancy, detailed Xbox Games on your mobile screen, just with the help of a game pass and a suitable controller. According to the developers, gamers need only an Android phone or tablet and a supported controller to join in on the fun of Xbox gaming while enjoying the full benefits of the Xbox ecosystem. This opens up the gaming connection between Console and Mobile and is a very big step to start with.
How to play Xbox games on Android using the Game Pass
Well, installing the app and playing games is all fine, but to play them on your phones need some purchases to start with. First of all, you definitely need an Xbox Wireless Controller, make sure it is a compatible one to mobile. You can connect your controller to your mobile device via Bluetooth. Once you pair your device and controller, you can play games. This is where players might hesitate, as controllers are not any cheaper and those alternatives aren’t any great either.
The next step is to purchase the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. As of now, you can buy it for a mere $1, around 90% off from its actual price. This is for the first month, and after that, they will retain the actual price. It is on you to whether to continue the subscription or not.
However, the bonus is that this comes with a lot of games, and definitely a worthy purchase. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can play via the cloud in 22 countries starting September 15 at no additional cost. For more details, we have a separate guide for it which you can find below:
