Microsoft is a tech giant. Its operating system runs on more than 70% of the world’s PCs. The Xbox competes with the Sony PS game console. The Surface range has almost no rivals on the market and is riding the same wave as Apple products. This list could go on for hours. But what makes the Redmond company at the top is its policy and business model. We mean that Microsoft products are available far and wide. And today, the company announced that many of its games on Windows would be available in 40 more countries through its subscription service.
Microsoft Makes Its Games on Windows Accessible In More Countries
Microsoft is expanding its PC Game Pass preview program to 40 more countries around the world. This brings the total number of countries where you can get games on Windows to 86. By the way, the former Xbox Game Pass for PC service gives you access to a lot of goodies. These include releases from Xbox Game Studios, members-only benefits at Riot Games, an EA Play membership, and titles from Bethesda.
Now, if you want to use the preview version of the service, you need to install the Xbox Insider Hub app and sign up. In addition, Microsoft has a special price – the first month’s membership costs $1. But, after that, you will have to pay $10.
