Xbox is one of the pioneers in normalizing the subscription model for games. Currently, they offer two subscriptions. Firstly, Xbox Live Gold is a monthly membership plan that gives you a couple of free games a month, along with online play. In fact, this subscription mainly focuses on providing online multiplayer features.

On the other hand, Xbox’s Game Pass is a subscription that gives you “over 100 high-quality games for console and PC, and an EA Play membership, all for one low monthly price.”

Xbox updates the list of games with new ones added every month. The gaming giant recently took to Twitter to announce the star-studded lineup they have curated for April 2021.
