Is XBOX Game Pass PC the way to go?
You get to play the Standard version on the 18th at launch.

For a casual player, paying just £3.99 per month(£1 first month) for 2 or 3 months seems a good option until a decent sale.

If you are looking at short term or have doubts, then probably.

Game Pass is absolutely the way to go if you're unsure.
I won't have the money for the steam version until at least the 19th so game pass is the way to go for me.

For a month yes, longer no.

You're not getting a decent sale this year, that will be in late 2021 at the very minimum.

You can buy many months of Game Pass for 60$, and that includes a lot of good games.

I wasn’t even aware of this game pass thing before FS2020. Literally all I want is FS2020, not interested in the other games that come with the pass. I just went ahead and went for the one time fee as all I will be playing is FS2020.

10 million users and PCGamer say it is a good deal.

And all the other games you can play. Seems like more then EPIC, UPlay and EA game pass services combined.

Yeah you can get a year with that money. At least here it's 3,99 euros / month for a limited time.

Remember that only while the XBox Pass for Windows is in BETA will it be $5 per month ($1 for first month).

WARNING - Once out of BETA the price will increase.

There is currently no date as to when BETA ends.

ms game pass and red dead redemption advertised for months the pc game would be in the game store. nope. imho don't buy the ms pc game pass until ms flight sim shows available.

Gamepass is excellent value, lots of great games on it, if you're serious about flight sims you might end up buying one of the versions later on.

I just got the game pass for £1, I'm hoping I can find it cheaper by the time the game pass expires. Some 3rd party sellers have already had the windows 10 store version on sale for £39.99 on the standard version and £78.61 for the premium deluxe. If I can get a steam key for £40 then ill be happy
