Microsoft has posted a blog post detailing a new Xbox program for its gaming fans. The program allows users to commit to a two-year plan where they pay monthly for either an Xbox One S or an Xbox One X and subscriptions to both Xbox Live Gold and Game Pass.
The Xbox One X bundle, which costs $35 a month for two years, is in line with the roughly $860 a person would normally pay for everything included. The Xbox One S bundle, priced $22 a month, is about a $130 cheaper than buying everything it includes. Of course, this back of the envelope math doesn’t take into account future price drops for the hardware or the Xbox Live and Game Pass discounts that regularly pop up, but it still looks pretty good considering it’s an interest-free way of buying the hardware today and paying for it years down the road.
