The Xbox range's top-tier Xbox One X might be the most expensive of current consoles, at US$499, but Microsoft's Xbox division is also campaigning on value with its Xbox Game Pass subscription – from Nov 12, including PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds – and naming several franchises that were once high-profile PlayStation exclusives during its Nov 10 Xbox FanFest event. 

Just as Sony's PlayStation 4 built its generation-leading momentum on top of a generous PlayStation Plus subscription service, Microsoft's US$9.99 monthly Xbox Game Pass is being strengthened ahead of Holiday 2018's commercial rush.
