Would replacing gold with a gamepass sub for the same price work ? I have gold but no game pass since I now use my xbox for exclusives and my time playing MP has declined year on year since its peak on the 360 leading me to look at ending my gold sub when it finishes up in November but game pass combined with online .could work in MS's favor when it comes to gamers like me.

It would essentially be a massive price hike to play online if MS decided to lock multiplayer behind a GP subscription. As great a value as Games Pass offers, I can't see this going over well with their userbase.

That's why I put in the proviso that it be the same price  as the original gold sub.
