Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on Sale for £1 in Black Friday Deal

UPDATE: If you're already a Game Pass Ultimate member, you can now get a 50% discount on the 3-Month pass from Amazon as well.

If you haven’t already tried Game Pass out, there’s never been a better time to sign up with this early Black Friday offer.

Xbox Game Pass has been a shining beacon for Xbox and Microsoft since its launch in 2016. Since then Game Pass Ultimate has taken most of the limelight, offering access to both the Xbox and PC Game Pass catalogues alongside Xbox Live Gold.

£10.99 per month for the regular user isn't a bad price-point, but new customers can now subscribe to the service for only £1 for the first three months. This is an impressive Black Friday offer, and a great start to the Microsoft sale that kicks off on Nov. 22.

On top of this, Ultimate members can now enjoy one month of EA Access, three months of Discord Nitro, and six months of Spotify Premium. Again, you will need to be a new member of these services to gain access to the subscriptions.

3-Month Game Pass Ultimate for £1

It's also worth mentioning a great hack for Game Pass Ultimate, if you're already an Xbox Live Gold member. Microsoft quite happily informs you that the service will stack on top of your current Live Gold membership (up to 36 months).

To take full advantage of this, prior to redeeming this offer, you could invest in a new 12-month Gold membership, and effectively get 15 months worth of Game Pass Ultimate, for a fraction of the normal price.

About Our Expert

My Experience

I’ve been freelancing as a tech journalist for several years now, after long wanting to write about my passion for video games. I have bylines on Kotaku and other sites, but PCMag is where you can find most of my musings on gaming, its culture, and where the industry is going next. I also test online services for both businesses and individuals. If you’re interested in hearing me talk about entertainment, film, and TV, you can check out my Patreon and Substack, both under the name “Robby Knows.”

The Technology I Use

Most of the tech I use every day is within the Apple ecosystem. Currently, I rely on a 2025 MacBook Air for computing and dabble in art projects on my 6th-generation iPad Mini. I don't go anywhere without my AirPods Pro 2 in my pocket.

As an avid gamer, you better believe that I always have a controller in my hands if I’m not watching movies or TV. I use my PS5 and Switch 2 equally, depending on what’s the hot new release, and am always trying to find interesting ways to tinker with my Steam Deck.

Given the current state of social media and technology, I find myself going more analog to escape the noise. I have a modest collection of watches, both automatic and digital, to free myself from the pings and notifications of the modern world. I also put my phone in a ySky lockbox for 12 hours every night to reduce my screen time. I spent a lot of the past year trying to read good books rather than scroll through feeds.
