Xbox Game Pass Ultimate now includes a Fortnite Crew subscription
Xbox has revealed the last batch of Game Pass additions for November along with a couple of titles that are coming to the service in December. Starting today, though, Game Pass Ultimate subscribers have a Fortnite Crew subscription at no extra cost.
That includes access to the current Fortnite battle pass, along with the OG pass, Lego pass, music pass and Rocket League’s rocket pass premium. On top of that, Fortnite Crew puts 1,000 V-Bucks in subscribers’ wallets every month.
Microsoft announced Fortnite Crew as a perk for Game Pass Premium in early October, when it jacked up the price of the service to $30 per month. Still, it’s a decent value add for Fortnite players, given that a Crew membership costs $12 per month by itself. Seems like as good a reason as any to check out the current Simpsons-themed season of Fortnite Battle Royale if you have an Ultimate subscription.
As for the games that are joining the service over the next couple of weeks, there are two day-one additions to Game Pass Premium and PC Game Pass. Action RPG title Moonlighted 2: The Endless Vault joins the lineup as a PC-only game preview on November 19.
Then, on December 1, a game we’re pretty darn excited for joins the fray in the form of Marvel Cosmic Invasion. This is a sidescrolling beat-‘em-up from Tribute Games and publisher Dotemu, the same tandem that brought us the terrific Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. You can choose from a roster of 15 fighters in Cosmic Invasion, including Iron Man, Phoenix/Jean Grey, Spider-Man and Wolverine. The demo is a blast, so here's hoping for more of that from the full game, which is also coming to Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PS4 and PS5 on December 1.
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is a spiritual successor to Life is Strange from the creator of that series, Don't Nod. It debuted earlier this year and it's coming to Game Pass Ultimate and Premium, as well as PC Game Pass, for cloud, PC and Xbox Series X/S on December 2. Don't Nod is also behind last year's action RPG Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, which I enjoyed quite a bit. That's coming to the same Game Pass tiers on the same platforms on November 25.
The other Game Pass additions for the next two weeks are:
Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo (cloud, console and PC) – November 19, arriving on Game Pass Premium
Revenge of the Savage Planet (cloud, PC and Xbox Series X/S) – November 19, arriving on Game Pass Premium
Monsters are Coming! Rock & Road (handheld and PC) – November 20 on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass
The Crew Motorfest (cloud, console and PC) – November 20 on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass
Kill It With Fire! 2 (cloud, console, and PC) – November 25 on Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass Premium and PC Game Pass
As for the titles leaving Game Pass this month, Barbie Project Friendship, Lords of the Fallen, Octopath Traveler, Octopath Traveler II and SteamWorld Build (all for cloud, console and PC) will depart the service for the time being on November 30.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/xbox/xbox-game-pass-ultimate-now-includes-a-fortnite-crew-subscription-151826277.html?src=rss
