IMO this is a missed opportunity, they should have just ended the gold annual pricing earlier and set it to 4.99/month (Same as annual pricing /12) (Unlike their previous failed attempt at just canceling the annual pricing and leaving it at 9.99) then rise it by 1$ at the same time as the other tier making 5.99$.

Adding all Game Pass titles (at least for 1st party) but with ads (like the rumored tier a while ago) and (1-6) months delay.

It should have instead been named "Live Pass".

They should have also added multiplayer in the standard Game Pass console so that all their offering have live gold benefits but just killed GwG entirely.

now it would have been
Live Pass(ads supported game pass with release delay): 5.99
Game Pass Console: 10.99
Game Pass PC: 10.99
Game Pass Ultimate: 16.99

Don't say the ad word! When that ad supported tier was leaked, it was brutalised online, people always lose their shit whenever ads are mentioned.

I do agree that all 1st party should be added but with a 6-12 month delay, I'm a bit confused why some 1st party titles are missing, I can't work out a pattern right now, but it definitely isn't day one, which it shouldn't be, day one is the incentive for Game Pass Console and Ultimate but it does right now look like a major step down in value from Game Pass Console but still a step up from shitty GWG.

Yeah it was trashed but it's the kind of thing people get mad about and ... doesn't do anything else because they actually can't, those already on game pass would have nothing changed and those with gold will have the added benefits of access to a free cut down Game Pass with ads making it win-win. So yeah people would cry foul and then proceed to be hypocrites anyway. And better yet, the fake outcry would help publicize the thing lol.

Anyway, that is just a thought on what I think is a great missed opportunity.

One thing is for sure, missing "Live Pass" is unforgivable, what were they thinking?
