Microsoft just raised the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to $29.99/month, and fans aren’t happy. Many are canceling, some are calling for a boycott, and even Microsoft’s website is struggling to keep up.

I was considering canceling anyway since I found myself using it less and less, so this was a good deciding factor.

Subscriptions are a scam and always have been. This was expected. I wouldn’t be surprised if they raise it again within 2026.
