Xbox Game Pass subscribers top 10 million as Microsoft prepares for the next generation
Xbox Live had almost 90 million active players

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Game Pass has surpassed 10 million subscribers, according to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft's latest accounting.
The subscription service for downloading and playing free games got a nod during Microsoft's earnings call with investors last🍌 night. CEO Satya Nadella covered all areas of the g🔯iant company's businesses in his initial presentation, and here's what he said about gaming specifically:
"People everywhere are turning to gaming to sust💧ain human connectioꦯn while practicing social distancing. And we continue to deliver new exclusive, first and third-party content to attract and retain gamers.
"We saw all-time record engagement this quarter, with nearly 90 million active users of Xbox Live, led by strength on and off console. Xbox Game Pass has more than 10 million subscribers, and we are seeing increased monetization of in-game content and services. And our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Project xCloud gaming service now has hundreds of thousands of users inꦑ preview across 7 countries, with 8 more launching in the coming weeks."
No mention of individual games or console sales there, which shows just how much Microsoft looks at its modern gaming business as service oriented. It's also worth noting that Xbox Game Pass encompasses several sub-services, including the flagship subscription for Xbox One games, Xbox🍸 Game Pass for PC, and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, which bundles them both together wဣith an Xbox Live Gold subscription.
Microsoft hasn't said much specifically about how Xbox Game Pass will work with its next-gen console, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X, but it's a safe bet that it will be even more deeply integrated than ever before. The Smart Delivery feature for delivering the best version of each game to each system sounds like a match made in heaven (or Redmond, Washingto🍎n) for Xbox Game Pass.

I got 🌟a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for ꦯCVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
