Xbox Game Pass Standard Tier Launches, Omits Major Titles

Microsoft's new Game Pass Standard tier lacks many high-profile games and day-one releases, causing confusion and frustration among subscribers.

The new Game Pass Standard tier is priced at $15 per month and replaces the previous Console tier.
Notable games missing from the Standard tier include Starfield, Diablo 4, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.
Day-one releases are exclusive to the more expensive Ultimate and PC Game Pass tiers, which cost $20 and $12 per month respectively.
Over 40 games that were previously available on the Console tier have been removed from the Standard tier.
The changes have sparked criticism, with many players feeling that the new tier offers less value compared to previous subscription options.
