Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Deal: Save $50 On 6 Months

Microsoft's bid to have the premiere "Netflix but for video games" service is paying off, as its Xbox Game Pass service has quickly become on of gaming's best ongoing deals. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, which bundles Game Pass and Microsoft's other subscription service, is still one of the biggest value-adds you can get this holiday season, especially when it's over half-off which just happens to be the case over at Newegg right now.

To claim the deal, add a three-month Game Pass Ultimate membership to your cart. Use promo code EMCUVUC33 at checkout, and you'll drop that price to $40. On top of that, you'll get an additional three months as a free gift item, getting you six months for the $40 price. This deal is available through next Monday, December 23. The extra three-month membership code must be redeemed by March 15.

New games were just announced for Xbox Game Pass today, and they're good ones. Untitled Goose Game is available right now, and this Friday, Life is Strange 2 Episode 5, Pillars of Eternity, and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be added to the library.

December's free Games With Gold currently include Insane Robots, Jurassic World Evolution, Toy Story 3, and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate HD.
