This Xbox Game Pass Ultimate deal shaves a few bucks off a membership

Building a library of games is one of the slowest, most methodical, and often most expensive part of a gamer’s journey. $40, $50, and $60 console releases all add up over the years for console gamers. That’s why game passes are so great, you get big variety in games but only have to pay monthly. This is especially true if you aren’t a completionist and prefer to dip your toes into a new game ever few days. In any event, that’s why we’re so happy to see this Xbox Game Pass Ultimate deal, which brings one month of the service down to $15 from $17, a savings of about 12%.

We don’t feel strongly either way about this, but you should
