(Pocket-lint): Microsoft has increased the volume of Xbox Game Pass, as with the addition of EA Play at no additional cost. Now, it looks like another new benefit could come to the subscription service. Jez Corden from Windows Central He recently claimed on Twitter that Ubisoft’s Uplay + could join Xbox Game Pass.
Microsoft has some subscription services for Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S owners. There’s Xbox Live Gold, a monthly membership plan that is required to play online, and then there’s Xbox Game Pass, which gives you access to hundreds of games for just one monthly fee. But, if you upgrade to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, you get Xbox Live Gold plus Xbox Game Pass for PC, as well as EA Play and access to Xbox’s cloud gaming service (formerly Project xCloud).
With Xbox Games Pass, you can download the games and play them as often as you like, as long as you continue to pay the monthly fee. Some titles may not be available as others are added, but you also have the option to purchase any from the collection outright at discounted prices. Microsoft is also adding releases of its own games as soon as they are available in stores.
As for Ubisoft Uplay +, based on what Corden heard, there is “a very good chance” that it will arrive soon.
I’ve seen rumors about the addition of Ubisoft Uplay + to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
I think this has a good chance of being true based on what I have heard.

Corden has a long history with Xbox-related rumors, and since Microsoft has said it wants to do more EA Play-like collaborations for Xbox Games Pass, we suspect that it is definitely in negotiations with Ubisoft to bring Uplay + to the service. We will inform you as we learn more.
