This is obviously just a money grab at this point, isn’t it?
News of the family plan ending in August comes just days after Microsoft bumped its overall Xbox Game Pass monthly prices. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate has move from $14.99 per month to $16.99 (€14.99 / £12.99).

I’ve seen about half and half. Half are praising Microsoft for monopolizing it and the other are against. Which yeah, so soon after reddit you’d think they’d be against complete control of a company. They all burn you eventually
