Microsoft Corp will start adding new videogames, including upcoming Halo and Gears of War, to a monthly subscription service it introduced last year in an effort to lure gamers from Sony Corp and Nintendo Co.
Starting with the March 20 release of Sea of Thieves, Xbox Game Pass customers will get new titles the same day they hit stores for their US$10 (RM39) monthly fee. Previously, subscribers would have had to pay separately to purchase the games in stores or by download, or wait for the games to be released for a while before they became part of Game Pass.
