Xbox Game Pass Ultimate $1 deal is back for new users

Both Microsoft and its rival Sony are increasingly dependent on subscriptions for revenue, and the Game Pass Ultimate hike could help on that front.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/xbox-game-pass-ultimate-1-deal-is-back-for-new-users-194212213.html?src=rss
