It should also be noted, to play games online, console Game Pass subscribers will also need a separate subscription to Xbox Live Gold. However, if you purchase a game à la carte, your save files will carry over, so there’s no risk of lost progress.
Similarly, once your subscription runs out, you’ll lose access to the Game Pass library. (Except for games from Microsoft studios those are there for keeps.) As with any subscription service, games come and go from Xbox Game Pass frequently, so if you see a game you like, you’ll want to play it sooner rather than later. These games don’t generally come with DLC, but you’ll get a 10% discount on any add-ons.
If you choose to buy one of the Game Pass titles à la carte, you’ll get a 20% discount.
