Max Mafioso

Did you need to do anything in particular?
I tried from the Canada store, provided a Canadian address but it still failed

Change the region on your console, you should be able to purchase it from there.

That's when you started your Live sub.
It's on a free weekend for Live users, so it looks like you own it until Monday or whatever

Not sure if this was posted already.

You can upgrade to Ultimate for €1: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ie/p/xbox-game-pass-ultimate/cfq7ttc0khs0?wa=wsignin1.0&SilentAuth=1&activetab=pivot:overviewtab

Unless I'm reading it wrong this will convert whatever sub you have left to ultimate, so if you have two years of XBL left for example it will convert it to 2 years of game pass ultimate which gives you game pass both on console and PC.

No I think you're right, nice one. Delighted!

Now where's cheapest for 12 months live!?

I'm confused I have 2 years left of Xbox live left but my game pass just expired and I click on this and it says 1 euro for first month 12 from month onwards? How does it convert it to game pass ultimate?

It should give you 2 years of ultimate after you pay the euro. I had 18 months XBL and 6 months game pass active, I now have two years of ultimate.

I have over 2 years of gold but no game pass, so if I spend that euro would I get over two years of game pass?

MS are killing it already and it hasn't even started :-)

I'm guessing sub can be shared on PC?

December 2020 is only 18 months, max should be June 2022.

36 months is 3 years. Why would it only up to December 20? June 22 is 3 years from now.

Edit: I paid the €1 and my live (expires 17/11/21) converted to ultimate (expires 17/12/21)

Rossi IRL

Have it untill June 2022 now

Great deal

Its definitely only a once off €1? and not just €1 for the first month? Then back to €12pm?

I dont use gamepass ...I dont even use XBL other than to play online, but if its only €1 I may as well.


EDIT: Yep its only €1/$1/£1 for the first month as confirmed by multiple gaming sites.

Mine says

€12.99 every month, next charge on 09/06/2022 with *********

I think this is only if you've never had XBox Live or Gamepass before

I guess the question is where the best place is to buy xbox live gold at the moment? I need to extend mine.

But someone on boards mention to check via the xbox as some people are seeing "extend for 25 euro"
