Microsoft Delays Price Hike and Introduces New Xbox Game Pass Plans
TL;DR Summary
Some Xbox Game Pass Ultimate users in the EU may be protected from the 50% price increase if they are on auto-renew, due to consumer protection laws requiring notice before changes. However, users in other regions, like the US, are likely to face the new higher rates. Microsoft has sent emails to some EU users indicating their current plans won't be affected as long as they don't cancel and resubscribe.
