Xbox Game Pass continues to be a major focus for Microsoft. Just a few days ago, they announced that Halo: The Master Chief Collection will be available starting September 1st for all subscribers. Moreover, there’s now an Xbox Game Pass beta app available on Android and iOS that lets members browse the entire catalog and even download games directly to their Xbox One console. Last but not least, until August 31 you can get one month of Xbox Game Pass for just $2 (or the equivalent local currency) and receive a second month for free in nearly all countries where Xbox Game Pass is available (except Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Quebec).

Speaking with Variety, Ben Decker, Head of Gaming Services at Microsoft, said that he doesn’t believe Xbox Game Pass will be a replacement for full game purchases. Rather, it’s going to be another option.
