Minecraft Introduces Marketplace Pass for Bedrock Edition

The new subscription service offers access to over 150 content packs for $3.99 a month, amid growing concerns over game subscription models.

Mojang announces the Minecraft Marketplace Pass, a subscription service for Bedrock Edition offering access to over 150 community-created content packs.
The pass includes skins, adventure worlds, survival spawns, mashups, and more, with content changing monthly.
A subscription costs $3.99 per month, with a 30-day free trial available for new subscribers.
Marketplace Pass content is temporary, but certain items like character creator items are permanent once redeemed.
The introduction of the Marketplace Pass raises questions about the sustainability and player comfort with game subscription services.
