It is already known that the subscription service provides tons of appealing titles every month to players all over the globe. While trying to appeal to console users, the PC platform also never falls behind given that Microsoft owns the Xbox brand.

Now considering the period from the end of 2021, there have been several premium games launched for the Xbox console as well as PC. They include people like Forza Horizon 5, Age of Empires IV and also Halo Infinite.

And Microsoft has just dropped a massive offer for all of its PC gamers, who recently became new members of Game Pass. According to the new announcement, anyone who has played Halo Infinite, Age of Empires IV and Forza Horizon 5 before February 28, 2022, can now enjoy the Xbox Game Pass on PC for free.

The most important thing to note here is that this free trial period will be available for a period of three months. This is really huge considering that the subscription service offers about 100 titles every month.

Qualified PC players will also be able to unlock exclusive Bethesda games, along with the benefit of EA Play.

Meanwhile, a majority of players did not seem impressed with this gesture from Microsoft, to say thank you to them. Most of the players expressed a disappointment with Game Pass and said that only new members will get it for free. On the other hand, existing and long-term subscribers will not get anything out of it.

Other users simply had no interest in the service as they felt it simply lacked good games. An angry fan wrote: “Had an XBOX, but I sold it. Basically an L console imo”.
