To begin with, Xbox Game Pass Friends & Family is only going to be available in a very limited scope — call it a test run. It will be available in Colombia and Ireland, but Microsoft said that it may add further countries and regions in the coming months. In Ireland, the plan is going to be priced at €21.99 per month ($21.92) (versus the €12.99 a single membership costs), and in Colombia, it will cost 49,900 COP (about $11). Microsoft is yet to announce the pricing in other regions, but it’s safe to assume it might be in the $20-$35 ballpark.
With the new plan, up to five people can share the same account, but there’s a catch — everyone has to be in the same country. As such, sharing with friends and family all over the globe is out the window. If you currently have an ongoing Game Pass subscription and switch to the Friends & Family plan, Microsoft will convert your remaining subscription time into the new plan. 30 days of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will equal 18 days of Friends & Family; 30 days of the console membership, Xbox Live Gold, or the PC Game Pass — 12 days of Friends & Family; and lastly, 30 days of EA Play will amount to just six days of Friends & Family.
Let’s hope that Microsoft will expand this program to include more countries soon enough.
