Xbox Game Pass Premium is the mid-tier subscription plan for the Xbox Game Pass service, offering a significantly expanded game library and benefits over the Essential tier. It’s designed for players who want a large selection of games playable across multiple devices.
Here is a breakdown of what the subscription includes:
- Expanded Game Library: Access to over 200 games on Xbox console, PC, and supported devices. This library includes blockbuster and fan-favorite titles (e.g., Diablo IV and Hogwarts Legacy).
- New Xbox-Published Games (Delayed): New games from Xbox Game Studios are added to the library within 12 months of launch, as opposed to being available on “Day One” like with the Ultimate plan.
- Play Anywhere: You can download and play games on Xbox consoles and PC.
- Cloud Gaming: Includes unlimited cloud gaming to stream games (including select games you own) to supported devices like mobile phones, tablets, and smart TVs.
- Premium subscribers generally experience shorter wait times for cloud streaming compared to Essential.
- Online Multiplayer: Includes online console multiplayer access for all games.
- Member Benefits and Rewards:
- In-game benefits for major titles (e.g., League of Legends, Call of Duty: Warzone).
- Exclusive deals and discounts on games and add-ons.
- Enhanced Xbox Rewards, allowing you to earn up to $50 a year in Store Rewards and receive 2times points on game and add-on purchaseses.
Key Difference from Ultimate:
The main difference between Premium and the top-tier Ultimate plan is that Premium does not include:
- Day One access to all new games.
- The full 400+ game library.
- EA Play or Ubisoft+ Classics memberships.
- The highest-quality cloud streaming or shortest wait times.
