The Microsoft subscription service continues to demonstrate that it has no rival in variety, quality, and launch releases. Currently, there is no alternative that offers the same, not even something similar: the level of Xbox Game Pass is extremely high and sets the standard for the industry.

We say it straightforwardly at Generación Xbox: no subscription service in the world offers what Xbox Game Pass offers today. There is no possible comparison, not even something that comes close to Microsoft’s proposal. With day-one releases, multi-platform games, and remastered classics, the current level is extremely high and marks a before and after, and we cannot see anything in the medium term that can compete with it. To say this, we are based on the releases of what we have so far in 2025 and what is still to come. We have only focused on the big games, although many more have arrived until the end of August.

Once again, Game Pass demonstrates that it is the true king of video game services, and it says so with solid arguments, with games, games, and more games.
