Microsoft PC Game Pass: Worth it or not?

Should you get a PC Game Pass subscription?

Over 400+ games and counting!

PC Game Pass is a subscription service for games to keep it simple. You get to install as many games from its extensive library and play them anytime you want. You don't stream the games, you download them on your PC. To play new AAA games, you still need a powerful PC.

If you are an avid gamer, the PC Game Pass is definitely worth it. It is only PHP 119/month cheaper than Netflix, Disney+, or even Spotify. For that price, you get access to 431 PC games from different developers such as Riot Games, Ubisoft, EA, Paradox, Bethesda, and more.

The number of games keeps growing too! One of the perks that you get with the service is access to Day 1 releases. This means you get immediate access to new game releases on the very first day. This happened for Back 4 Blood and Persona 5 Royal to name a few.

In some of the online multiplayer games such as Riot Game's Valorant and League of Legends, PC Game Pass subscribers get in-game perks such as unlocking all available champions and agents and 20 percent more experience. That is a lot of added value!

Filipino gamers can even try the service for a month only PHP 49. There you can check out the game library and if the subscription model suits your lifestyle.

What are the notable AAA titles available via PC Game pass? Here are some:

  • Death Stranding
