 to £70 ($70), to be in line with PlayStation's pricing. Xbox also removed the £1 ($1) Game Pass trials offer, giving people their first month of Game Pass at a low cost. Xbox then announced that the Xbox Series X would also increase in price, and with the PS5 price decrease, Xbox is now the more expensive option. Also this year, the company announced that Game Pass for Console and Ultimate would see a price rise. These changes shocked the community, but were expected considering increases in prices across the board. The price rise for Game Pass encouraged people to purchase a month of the service before the deadline. However, the same day that the price increased, Xbox reinstated the £1 ($1) deal, meaning many people ended up losing money. While this lasted for a while, Xbox has again made changes to Game Pass, just before the launch of this year's biggest game. Starfield is an Xbox exclusive title, and a huge open world space adventure from the team that developed Skyrim. The standard edition will sell for the full £70 ($70), but it will also be available for Game Pass on the day of release. Launching on September 6, 2023, there isn't long left to wait to dive into the open universe. However, Xbox has made a new change to Game Pass low cost trials just prior to this launch. The £1 ($1) trial will now only last two weeks rather than the usual month, which is not really long enough to dive into the game. With all these changes users often don't know what the current offers are, which is also problematic for consumer){kind=link}
