Xbox Game Pass on PC is coming, says Microsoft

A version of Xbox Game Pass on PC is coming and will be detailed in full at E3 2019, Microsoft’s Phil Spencer has confirmed.

“We researched whether a similar opportunity exists for PC players and PC game developers, and we believe that it does,” Spencer wrote. “We also considered the importance of bringing something new and additive to the PC gaming ecosystem, and we believe that we can. So, we designed a service specifically for the needs of PC gamers and PC game developers. It’s called Xbox Game Pass, just like the original, but it’s a new experience that we are building together with the PC community.”

Like its console equivalent, the Xbox Game Pass program on PC will offer up a library of over 100 PC titles on Windows 10, also offering 20% the purchase price of games within the library.

“We look forward to sharing more at E3, including the great games coming to the library, as well as more details on when and how you’ll experience the new Xbox Game Pass service for PC gamers,” Spencer added.

We’ll have more on Xbox Game Pass on PC from E3 2019 in just under a fortnight.
