    Yakuza Zero, Kiwami and Kiwami 2 coming to game pass on console. Great to see these on Xbox.

    Highlight of the show so far, tbh.

    Yakuza is a fairly big deal. All 3 on game pass.

    Edit: Sniper beat me too it.

    The last time I heard this much uncomfortable out of place laughing was from Joachim phoenix in joker.

    Honestly, I'm totally perplexed as to why they still insist on these live events. A 20 - 30 minute recorded show, with just Major Nelson and Phil Spencer would be amazing.

    It must be awfully daunting, to be working out of the public eye, and then having to go Infront of a camera for something like this.

    Yes, they're coming. Not sure if it's to Game Pass or not, I tuned out.

    Jesus no, would be like grating your eyeballs. They need the hype to promo, can't get that with no studio audience or big event.

    Genuinely excited for the final fantasy games. I have them on mini consoles emulated like but having them on the Xbox is so much easier.

    Well now seen Age of empires 2 is on game pass, probably the only game of the many I would have an interest in playing. Had a 14 day trial for Gamepass there and redeemed it to play but it is only available on PC, okay so downloaded the xbox app on PC and went to install Age of Empires 2 but low and behold you need ultimate to play games on PC. What is the point in that? I can use xbox live on PC, can't I, but not Gamepass I need Gamepass for PC. Ridiculous! Never want GP now just on principle.

    Not sure what you mean by using xbox live on pc but it's not really ridiculous, you just didn't understand the difference between gamepass and gamepass ultimate. Gamepass is for the xbox consoles only, and gamepass ultimate includes the pc, it's pretty simple. You can pick up ultimate right now for €1 for 3 months if you're still interested in playing AoE2.

    The Xbox twitter has now confirmed that Kingdom Hearts was erroneously announced for Game Pass.

    xCloud is coming to Game Pass, as Mickeroo correctly guessed.

    Does that mean the Xcloud subscription is included with Game Pass or that Game Pass games will be available on Xcloud.

    I believe it means that if you're subscribed to Game Pass, you can play all of the Game Pass games on xCloud.

    Outside of this, I don't think that there's been any details of how to pay for xCloud yet.

    Went back and took a look at that segment, and wow, it is terrible.

    Anyway, they announced two things,
    1. Any game you own or buy will be available to stream from their servers. I'm not sure where this leaves the "remote play from console" feature that they've shown off, because why would you stream from your own console when you can just stream from their servers.

    2. Game streaming is coming to Game Pass, which is their exact wording. That definitely implies to me that if you're subscribed to Game Pass, then you can play those games from Microsofts servers.

    Current and new Game Pass Ultimate members can get one free month of EA Access, three free months of Discord Nitro and six free months of Spotify Premium.

    I had to change my region to the UK on my Xbox, put in a Revolut card as payment method (with AddressPal postcode for my address) and it came up on my Home page to collect my gifts.

    Just got my invite too. When I try to download the app though it tells me my phone is not compatible. Looking at the requirements my S8 seems to meet everything, might try to VPN to US and download it in case I lied on the original application!

    It tells me the same in the Play store - I just downloaded the APK and installed it directly

    Tried a quick game of Shadow of The Tomb Raider. Graphics were obviously toned down a bit but I was very impressed with how smoothly it ran. Didn't detect any obvious input lag.

    Where did you DL the Apk from?


    Update ~ VPN'd to a US IP address and suddenly my device is compatible! Weirdly downloaded to my phone which was not on VPN.

    Update 2 ~ App refuses to connect due to not being in the correct region. Will try VPN on the phone later
