Containment continues for a month: think about Xbox Game Pass and PS Now subscriptions

It’s official : containment will last in France until at least Monday May 11, 2020. The situation is economically and socially difficult for many people, and frees up free time which is sometimes difficult to fill for some. Whether it is to keep you personally occupied or to entertain your children away from school, one solution among others is video games. While we are leaving for a month when many will still be stranded at home, the time may be right for think about unlimited subscription gaming services like PS Now and the Xbox Game Pass.


Let’s start with the latter. The Xbox Game Pass is available on PC and Xbox One, and provides access to hundreds of unlimited tracks, which must be downloaded to your machine to be played. Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Life is Strange 2, Sea of ​​thieves, Alien: Isolation, Final Fantasy XV, Grand Theft Auto V, Deny: Automata, Wolfenstein: Youngblood, all Gears, all Halo… There is no shortage of great deals, and there is plenty to do, even if you already have a busy toy library. To keep you busy until May 11, you only need one month of subscription: it will cost you € 9.99 on Xbox One, only € 3.99 on PC with a slightly smaller catalog, and 12 € 99 for both via Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, which also gives access to Xbox Live Gold on console. Better, if you’ve never taken advantage of it, the first month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is only 1 € ! Yes, € 1 to take advantage of all these titles without limit, admit that it is a good deal.

If you are more of a aficionados of competition, the equivalent is the PlayStation Now. The service is distinguished by the fact that it can be used in streaming, without downloading a game, both on PS4 and on PC equipped with Windows, which still requires a solid connection. On PlayStation 4, platform titles can still be installed for normal use, even if the flow is restricted until further notice. The catalog is solid, with more than 700 references, such as Marvel’s Spider-Man, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Control, DOOM, PUBG, The Evil Within, Prey, Steep, Until Dawn… And there are even experiences from the PS3 and PS2 eras, exclusively in streaming, to offer a jump in time! The monthly subscription costs € 9.99, but if you are not sure, you can take advantage ofa seven-day free trial, to familiarize yourself with the catalog or possibly test the game in streaming.
