Microsoft Cancels Price of Xbox Live Gold
Microsoft Cancels Price of Xbox Live Gold. On the 22nd yesterday, Microsoft announced that they would increase the subscription fee for Xbox Live Gold. However, less than 24 hours after the statement, Microsoft decided to revise its policy and cancel the decision they had previously made. In a post on their official website, they said that the subscription fee will remain the same as before. In addition, free-to-play games will no longer need this service.
The cancellation of the policy was caused by gamers who objected if the subscription fee to Xbox Live Gold should be increased. This made Microsoft reconsider its decision and finally canceled the decision to increase the subscription fee for the service. Furthermore, Microsoft acknowledged that they failed to live up to the expectations of its players regarding multiplayer functionality.
The key point of the revision is that the pricing structure has not changed, and free-to-play games will no longer require an Xbox Live Gold membership. Microsoft says they are currently working to make these changes as quickly as possible in the coming months.
Meanwhile, here is a list of Xbox Live Gold subscription fees as of January 25, 2021:
- 1-month membership: $ 9.99
- 3-months membership: $ 24.99
- 6-months membership: $ 39.99
- 12-months membership: $ 59.99
Xbox Live Gold itself is a service that allows players to enjoy online multiplayer features, and also get access to several selected games on the Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
Regarding price increases, technology giant Microsoft itself has previously raised prices for this service. But this time, they did not increase the price of Xbox Live Gold as previously mentioned. Well, it looks like they are still listening to the complaints of gamers who use their consoles.
