Hi friends! I know we’re not ready for the holidays to be here just yet, but I have been holding this news in for so long that I can’t wait any longer to share it with you. We have so many­ good games, and some unbelievably amazing partnerships; my early holiday gift is to be able to finally tell someone about this holiday deal, because I hate keeping secrets.

Let’s get into this good stuff. We’ve got too many good games we need to share. If you haven‘t tried Xbox Game Pass Ultimate yet, we’ve got your first 3 months for $1. I did not type that wrong, it’s 3 months for you to give all these games a shot for just $1. Plus, while we know you’re all here for the games, your Xbox Game Pass Membership gets you a bunch of other things (like discounts on DLC, buying games in our library, etc.), we’re excited to add more to this list for the holidays.

We’ve teamed up with some of our favorites to unlock a magical gaming holiday for all our Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members. For a limited time, all eligible Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members get 1 month of EA Access, 3 months of Discord Nitro, and 6 months of Spotify Premium included as part of their member benefits. That’s not justto new Ultimate members, these perks are for all Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members. Just go to the membership area on your console and grab yours. It’s like a gift, but to yourself! And you don’t have to wrap it!

I’m betting you hadn’t forgotten our promise to bring Xbox Game Studios games to Xbox Game Pass the same day as their launch – like Age of Empires: Definitive Edition, which celebrates the 20th anniversary of the most popular strategy games ever! Pretty sure I mentioned before that it’s available today, but it’s worth saying again, it’s available today.

And a just a few short weeks later, we’re bringing Halo: The Master Chief Collection to PC for the first time, starting with Halo: Reach on December 3. Now optimized for PC, experience the revered campaign and the pivotal battle for the planet Reach as Noble team fights to save humanity’s last stronghold.

There is also an updated bundle for console, which includes Halo 3: ODST and Halo: Reach. Plus, since it’s included with your Xbox Game Pass membership, you can pre-install now, so you’re ready to play on day one!

Beyond Dec, there are even more Xbox Game Studios titles coming in 2020:

Bleeding Edge (Console & PC)

Grounded (Console & PC)

Microsoft Flight Simulator (PC)

Minecraft Dungeons (Console & PC)

Ori and the Will of the Wisps (Console & PC)

Tell Me Why (Console & PC)

Wasteland 3 (Console & PC)

And while it’s sad to say goodbye to games that are leaving our library on November 30, if you want to snag them now so you can keep playing, don’t forget that members get a 10% discount on games before they go!

If you aren’t already following along, you can catch all our news, memes, and shower thoughts here for Xbox Game Pass on Twitter and Instagram, and Twitter for Xbox Game Pass for PC.

And did I mention that having a remote install option from the Xbox Game Pass mobile app is super handy? I’ve been using it to install to my console, but we also just added the option to remote install to your PC, so now installing my PC games is even easier. One less step between getting home and pretending to be an adult because I play one in video games.

Lastly, seriously, did you see you can get EA Access, Discord Nitro, Spotify Premium and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, for $1? I’ve got a few new apps to download as an extra gift to myself! To the surprise of no one, Terms and Conditions apply.
