Do we have confirmation of that somewhere? The price of it was just increased today from $11.99 to $16.49. It would make sense to faze it out now the others work on PC.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is getting a BIG price increase | Windows Central

Oh wait, I guess Xbox forgot to include this in their main Xbox Wire article lol. They only mention the 3 primary tiers. PC Game Pass not included.

I wonder if this price increase is for those that were already subbed and no new subs to PC GP will happen?

The disparity between it and console is even bigger now. Before it was $12/month on PC for day one games, vs $20/month on console. Now it's $16.49/month vs $30/month. You have to pay almost double on console to get day one games like PC. OFC ultimate gets a lot of other stuff tacked in, but some people just want the day one games and aren't interested in cloud/fortnite, but have to pay it anyway.

I imagine they will faze it out at some point but when they do that won't be a good day for PC gamepass users who just want to play MS games day one.
