Xbox Game Pass: how much do all the games in the catalog cost? Let's find out the total price
Xbox Game Pass
Xbox Game Pass is certainly among the best subscription services currently available in the gaming field, perhaps the best ever for convenience, as shown by this interesting research on the prices of the games in the catalog that shows how much all the titles together would cost.According to reports from We Got This Covered, the total total cost of all the games in the Xbox Game Pass catalog on consoles is $ 10,026.24, this is the cost that would require the purchase of all the games present . Which can give us an idea of the monetary value of the catalog, considering that a year's subscription costs about 120 euros (except for any discounts and promotions).
Excluding first party games from Xbox Game Studios, the price would drop at $ 8,201.87, however important even only as regards the third party titles, which obviously represent the majority of the catalog.
As for the PC Game Pass, the purchase of every single game would lead to a cost of $ 8,081.91, which becomes $ 6,644.32 if you exclude the Microsoft games of the approximately 30 teams present within Xbox Game Studios.
Obviously, the We Got this Covered research tells only one part of the reality on the Microsoft service, because calculating the value only on the basis of the prices of all the titles is not enough to demonstrate its convenience, since we must then see the actual attractiveness of the individual games.
Xbox Game Pass is now a pillar of the entire Xbox division of Microsoft However, as we see from month to month, even on this last aspect there is very little to complain about, so it is interesting to see the precise numbers on the total economic value of the offer.
There are about 450 games in the Xbox Game Pass for console catalog, at least based on when the site searched, while 409 are in the PC Game Pass, since there is no overlap total between the two catalogs. Among these, 65 titles are backwards compatible with the Xbox 360 and earlier Xbox generation, so most of the games belong to the Xbox One and Xbox Series X | S generations.
For the rest, we have seen the games from first batch of March 2022 for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, while others are arriving in the second half of the month yet to be announced, with some games being removed from the catalog on March 15, 2022.

New Xbox Game Pass Game May Be Its Biggest Yet This Year
Xbox Game Pass has a few new games across Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PC, and one of them may be the biggest game the subscription service has added so far this year. 2021 wasn't the greatest year for games, but even a slow year has great releases. Last year, these great releases included the likes of Deathloop, It Takes Two, Resident Evil Village, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, Forza Horizon 5, Halo Infinite, Returnal, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Metroid Dread, Chivalry 2, and Hitman 3. As you could probably guess by now, one of these games is now available via Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. More specifically, all Game Pass subscribers no matter the platform can now enjoy Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. For how long, we don't know. It's not a permanent addition, but this is all we know.
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy was released on October 26, 2021, as a cross-gen game from publisher Square Enix and developer Eidos Montreal, the developer best known for the Deus Ex series. Upon release, the game garnered Metacritic scores ranging from 78 to 84, which isn't the greatest. The Nintendo Switch version is a 58, but that's because it's a bad port, not a bad game. These aren't the greatest review scores in the world, but the game still sold a few million copies, won Best Narrative at The Game Awards 2021, and won our Best Single-Player Game of 2021.
'Fire up a wild ride across the cosmos with a fresh take on Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy,' reads an official blurb about thegame. 'In this action-adventure game, you are Star-Lord leading the unpredictable Guardians from one explosion of chaos to the next. You got this. Probably.'
Now that Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is available via Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, it means subscribers can buy it outright with a 20 percent discount. Once it leaves the subscription service, this offer will expire.
Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate are both available via modern Xbox consoles and PC for $10 and $15, respectively.
