Microsoft has announced that the Xbox Game Pass program will launch in 31 markets on June 1, and include over 100 games.
Xbox Game Pass is a new digital gaming subscription service that gives you unlimited access to over 100 Xbox One and Backward Compatible Xbox 360 games for $9.99 USD / $11.99 CDN per month.
Beginning today, May 24, all Xbox Live Gold members will get exclusive Early Access to Xbox Game Pass, and can start their 14-day free trial. On Thursday, June 1, Xbox Game Pass will be available for all users, including the same trial.
When Xbox Game Pass launches, you can download and play a broad range of games on Xbox One, including Halo 5: Guardians, NBA 2K16 and Payday 2; fun for the family in LEGO Batman, Banjo-Kazooie and Viva Pinata; retro and classic games like Mega Man Legacy Collection, Streets of Rage and Pac-Man Championship Edition DX+; and shooter games, including all three titles in the BioShock franchise, Gears of War 1-3, Gears Ultimate, Perfect Dark Zero, Borderlands and more.
