“What's All This About A Cheaper, Ad-Filled Version Of Xbox Game Pass?. You may have noticed over the weekend that there was a bunch of chatter on social media about a potential cheaper, ad-filled version of Xbox Game Pass. This all started because of a screenshot posted to ResetEra appearing to show an official Spanish-language Microsoft survey, asking users whether they'd be interested in the idea. At the time, we didn't cover this here at Pure Xbox as the screenshot was posted with no source, but we've seen a couple of people now suggesting that they've taken the survey, so we have more reason to believe it's legit. Even so, we suggest taking the following information with a pinch of salt for the time being.”

“Xbox Controllers Are Significantly Discounted Right Now. Xbox controllers in various colorways are on sale right now at Best Buy and Walmart. If you have an Xbox or PC player in your life, an extra controller would make a wonderful last minute holiday gift--or if you're that Xbox or PC player in your own life, a great gift for yourself.

“Xbox Will Allow Call of Duty on PS Plus To Push Activision Deal Through. Microsoft is trying to sweeten the deal with PlayStation to get its Activision-Blizzard Deal through by allowing its competitor to put Call of Duty on PlayStation Plus if the megablockbuster franchise were to fall under its purview. This news from Bloomberg comes after the acquisition has hit several major roadblocks, including a lawsuit against the Xbox manufacturer by the Federal Trade Commission itself. So far, Sony’s effort to make it appear that Microsoft would have a monopoly on video games if the deal were to happen seems to be working, telling anyone that will listen. Anyway, Microsoft has made some unprecedented announcements and deals to make it clear that they don’t want Call of Duty to be an exclusive franchise, including offering both PlayStation and Nintendo 10 year deals to put the franchise on their consoles, with the cherry on top now revealed that PlayStation could put the series on its own subscription service.”

“Xbox's no-show at The Game Awards caps off a disappointing 2022. Xbox has had spurts of serious momentum this year, with the Xbox Series S, Xbox Game Pass, and Fortnite hitting Xbox Cloud Gaming doing a lot of the heavy lifting. Increasingly, though, fans are struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel. We all knew 2022 was going to be a rough year, with Starfield and other upcoming titles delayed, but the slog of regulatory drudgery from the Activision deal, coupled with the generalized lack of information is starting to wear thin.
From Comicbook
“Xbox Reportedly Hosting a Showcase Event Soon. Xbox is reportedly gearing up for some kind of showcase event very soon. Over the last decade, more and more gaming companies have transitioned to multiple smaller events throughout the year rather than one big blow out at E3. Nintendo largely kicked off this trend with its Nintendo Directs, PlayStation followed suit with its State of Play events, and other companies like Ubisoft have also followed this marketing method. However, Xbox has largely stuck with presenting its news at the big annual events like E3. There are rare exceptions to this, but it is not something fans have really come to expect in recent years.”
