There's no better time to sign up for Xbox Game Pass--besides the batch of great games joining the service in May, Microsoft is offering new and inactive subscribers three months of Xbox Game Pass for just $1 USD / £1 / $1 AU.

The offer will be available until May 22. You can't combine this offer with other promotions, and you can claim it only one time per account. After the three months are over, you'll be charged the full monthly price unless you cancel.

GET 3 MONTHS OF XBOX GAME PASS FOR $1 »

Xbox Game Pass generally costs $10 per month, so this is a great opportunity to get three months for 97% off. New subscribers can already sign up and get their first month for $1, so this deal is basically an extension of that one.

This deal has been strategically timed around the release of the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition, which launched May 7. Because that new console lacks a disc drive, owners rely on digital downloads and subscription services like Game Pass for content.

Xbox Game Pass gives subscribers unlimited access to over 100 Xbox One and Xbox 360 games, which they can download, play, and keep as long as they remain members. New games are regularly added to the service, while others are replaced. The latest announcement revealed that Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus, Wargroove, Surviving Mars, Tacoma, Black Desert, For the King, The Surge, and Lego Batman 3. Minecraft was also added recently. Other games already included are Fallout 4, Halo 5, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Doom, Just Cause 4, and more.
