Alongside the price increase, changes to the way 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Microsoft's💎 subscripti༒on service could be stacked were announced, leading to mass confusion and a flood of players looking to cash in before the increase.

Players Rush To Save

The price increase, which also included another 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Xbox Game Pass subscription tier, was called 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:"Confusing" and "Absurd" by players as they took to the internet to complain. Subscription stacking was one of 👍the most conte♏ntious points.

Players can now only stack 13 months of Xbox Game Pass on consoles, down from 36 months previously, thwarting a common pr🥀actice in which players would purchase various deals, which would then convert and stack to longer membership periods.

With this now no longer feasible, and a price increase to contend with, players have been seeking out the cheapest deals online🤡 to load up their membership before September's increase.

One major beneficiary of this is the code-selling website , which has seen its three-month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription jump to the top of the best-sellers list. It's overtaken 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree to claim 💜the top spot, with the one-month Ultimate subscription siไtting in fourth place.

With CDKeys' prices already significantly cheaper than the equivalent when bought directly from Microsoft before the price increase has even been factored in, it's little wonder that players have been flocking to save a bit of money, especially given the state of the global economy, where every penny now co🐈unts.
