Xbox Game Pass Library now has 333 Listings [253 Xbox, 108 PC]
- Thread starter Gowans
- Start date
Maybe not the most approproiate place to ask, but I just started watching E3 stuff and I was wondering if my un-redeemed codes from the old Xbox Gamepass would work for PC?
Anyone know by chance?

Don't forget if you're in ultimate and only had regular game pass before, you know get games with gold free. Portal and a golf
Game are up for download now.

The current PC library is a good starting point, but hopefully it gets a lot closer to parity with Xbox One by the end of the year.
Best value in gaming by far, and it's only going to get better given the expansion of Microsoft's first party studios.
They're doing something right. I was perfectly happy with my PS4 but I still picked up an Xbox One S recently pretty much exclusively for Game Pass. I haven't bought a game since buying the console, just been working my way through the game pass library. I have a list of about 15 games I want to play (and it keeps getting bigger!) Other than Cyberpunk and Last of Us 2 I can't see myself buying many more games this gen, game pass has me covered.
You can redeem them in the regular Microsoft Store on Windows 10. After that, upgrade to Game Pass Ultimate.
Don't know if these code have an expiration date and if they can be bundled tho.
Now... Once XCloud gets going, if I could just stream that entire library to my PC without needing to own an Xbox ...
I now have 3 years of Game Pass Ultimate.
My best buddy now has 3 years of Game Pass Ultimate.
We're super looking forward to 3 years of having all the same games in our libraries (via Game Pass and Games with Gold) for plenty of co-op and muliplayer gaming, with all the new MS releases included.
When they add streaming, it'll be even better as we'll be able to try games before we download them.
Just insanely good value!

Last night was the first night I could sit down and game all week. Did a Game Pass binge session. Couple games I uninstalled quickly. Couple games were addictive little niche games I left in my rotation. Think I discovered one of my favorite games of the gen in Metro...which I would've never purchased based on the trailers.
It's not just the value. I'll pay a lot for my gaming hobby. It's the discovery. Finding games and developers you never would've considered because there's 0 risk. Its also the community...built in millions of gamers to share feedback of a curated list with.
It would've cost me about $150 dollars to try out all the stuff I played yesterday. Most of it was newer. Instead no risk.
To me, it's the best platform exclusive in gaming.

I maintain that GamePass is the best deal in Gaming. If you play on XBox AND PC, then GamePass Ultimate is by extension the other best deal in gaming.
Man, forza horizon 4 is simply neat and charming. what absolute masterpiece that alone is worth the price of the subscription
crazy to think that when xbox one launched 6 years ago i only had to play killer instinct, ryse and forza, now when i get a brand new scarlett i will have more than 300 games ready to go....i hope that i can transfer my games to scarlett using a external HD
Been on the fence about getting an S for awhile now.. jumped the gun and got an X earlier bundled with 3 months of Gold & Game pass that'll be here tomorrow. Can't wait.
Crazy to think that i will be playing Gears 5, Ori 2 and Halo Infinite for... 1 euro (ultimate Gamepass deal, extending the Gold i have until 7/2021).
Crazy!
Crazy!
You do realize that brand new games are added all the time, right? Pretty much every month we get new releases.
Don't forget that Gamepass also turns any two PCs, Xboxs, or any combination of the above, into the greatest local co-op situation you can find anywhere.
After gamepass has been activated on all yours PCs and up to two Xboxs, just login to each of them with different gamertags, and play online co-op.
I've been playing co-op Sea of thieves with my wife off one Game Pass accpunt since launch, and it's been glorious. Forza, Gears 4, any MP game on gamepass with crossplay is amazing like this.

I realize that but some of those games have future potential to appear in a bundles with steam keys. Also some of the exclusives are appearing on steam, also i cant use my steam controller on the win 10 store, which is my preferred controller to use for most games.
The amount of Indies on this service makes me feel like a sucker for paying $15-25 for these same games on the Switch's eshop.
Wargroove, Moonlighter, Momodora, Hollow Knight, The Messenger, etc....sheesh.

Yes, I redeemed my Game Pass cards then upgraded to Ultimate which covers both XBox and PC.
What exactly do you need to play Game Pass games on PC? Does it require a separate launcher, or can the games be shortcut into Steam?
I'm noticing a couple of titles that aren't available on console (The Messenger) and wouldn't mind trying them out with a controller on PC.

Okay great, thank you! But what if I don't want Ultimate and just want PC Gamepass. I have no need for Xbox or Live anymore since I got rid of my 1X.
Could I use those redemption codes for just PC Gamepass?
Chances are it's a console code. You could redeem it if it hasn't expired and then upgrade to ultimate for $1 and that way you will have matching PC gamepass.
It needs to be turned ultimate. You can just change from console sub to PC sub
Yes, you can use your redemption codes for PC Game Pass but to do so you need to then upgrade to Ultimate for $1. Ultimate is all the services combined. If you just want to use PC Game Pass then use only that portion of Ultimate though I would still claim the monthly Gold games in case you someday buy another XBox console.
So redeem your codes and any other memberships to extend your membership, then go to XBox.com then upgrade for $1 so your redemption codes can then be used for Game Pass PC. Got it?
This video should explain it well if you do not get what I'm saying....
Yes. This is the biggest difference between buying a niche game and downloading a niche game in Game Pass. Even with games I already own, I get happy to see them added to Game Pass. Bigger community. Friends have access.
Might be a Vampyr problem and not a Gamepass problem, I've been playing Crosscode and Forza Horizon 4 and have not crashed yet.
i can't get over what an amazing deal it is. so many reasons already listed on here.
i've converted to ultimate for full 36 months so june 2022 all for 1 eur because i had a couple of years of gold and game pass separately now they've combined their length for the 36 max so actually even more value for me...
incredible
how on earth is this working from a financial or business pov for microsoft though?
