Microsoft Game Pass Ultimate

Can someone explain to me why I need to pay £19.99 for Powerwash simulator 2 (on PC)? It is is in Xbox and PC Game Pass?

I've got Game Pass Ultimate.

Working now just flicked over to install

I started Power Wash Sim 2 a couple of days ago, not sure it's any different to the first but it's just as addictive/satisfying/frustrating 🤣

Sons GPU runs out in a few days, any cheap exploits to get him a decent deal or is it just the usual case of stacking 3x 12 months core and 1x ultimate?

Mine also runs out later this year, last time I renewed I did the 3 year gold and convert 1:1 to ultimate but that's long gone now, this was recently posted on AVForums, so you need to work out what works out best for you with the new conversion rates:

When you upgrade to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, we'll convert any prepaid time you have on Xbox Game Pass or EA Play subscriptions and apply it toward Xbox Game Pass Ultimate at the current conversion ratio, up to a maximum of 36 months.

• Xbox Game Pass Essential conversion percentage: 45% of your remaining time will convert to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate time and be rounded up to the next full day. For example, 90 days remaining of Xbox Game Pass Essential will convert to 40 days of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate time.
• PC Game Pass conversion percentage: 60% of your remaining time will convert to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and be rounded up to the next full day. For example, 90 days remaining of PC Game Pass will convert to 54 days of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate time.
• Xbox Game Pass Premium conversion ratio: 65% of your remaining time will convert to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and be rounded up to the next full day. For example, 90 days remaining of Xbox Game Pass Premium will convert to 59 days of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate time.
• Game Pass for Console conversion ratio: 50% of your remaining time will convert to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and be rounded up to the next full day. For example, 90 days remaining of Xbox Game Pass Premium will convert to 45 days of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate time.
• EA Play conversion percentage: 25% of your remaining time will convert to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and be rounded up to the next full day. For example, 90 days remaining of EA Play will convert to 22 days of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate time.

Not sure on prices but they did just recently reduce the cost as COD is no longer included on day 1 which is probably for the best.

Last time I did it I used EA subs converted. Check out HotUKDeals as the best deals are usually discussed there.

I think now it's no longer the sub £40 a year bargain it was you have to weigh up sub vs buying games.

The number of games I've played over the past year would make it cheaper to just buy them, the only day 1 I've played is Horizon iirc. Games are pretty cheap if you just use the wishlist and wait for sales, most of the time an older game will be in the sale a few times a year. Or if you have an XSX you can buy physical.
