微軟進行了重大的策略轉向,自2026年4月起調整了Xbox Game Pass的定價。
In a major strategic pivot, Microsoft has adjusted its Xbox Game Pass pricing as of April 2026.
在Game Pass Ultimate每月29.99美元的費用引發強烈反彈後,新任執行長Asha Sharma引入了降價措施,旨在恢復該服務的價值。
After facing backlash for a $29.99 monthly fee for Game Pass Ultimate, new CEO Asha Sharma has introduced price cuts to restore value to the service.
未來的新作將在零售發售約一年後才會加入遊戲庫,據報導,之前的策略讓微軟損失了超過3億美元的潛在銷售額。
Future titles will only join the library roughly one year after their retail release, as the previous strategy was reportedly losing Microsoft over $300 million in potential sales.
這些變動發生在動盪的兩年重組期之後,期間微軟致力於平衡訂閱成長與旗艦遊戲的高昂成本。
These changes follow a tumultuous two-year period of restructuring, where Microsoft struggled to balance subscription growth with the high costs of its flagship titles.
雖然使用者可能對比2025年高峰期更低的月費感到欣慰,但排除首日發售的大作,顯示微軟正將其最大的遊戲資產轉向傳統零售銷售模式。
While users may appreciate the lower monthly costs compared to the 2025 peak, the exclusion of day-one blockbusters signals a shift back toward traditional retail sales for Microsoft's biggest gaming assets.
