Game Pass at 30 Million, Far Below Microsoft's 2026 Target
TL;DR Summary
Game Pass has about 30 million subscribers, roughly 4 million fewer than in 2024, and well short of Microsoft’s target of about 77 million by July 2026 (with a leaked plan for 100 million by 2030). Past price hikes and removing day-one Call of Duty titles are tied to subscriber losses, and internal memos from Xbox CEO Asha Sharma flag ongoing growth concerns as Microsoft adjusts pricing and strategy.
