Xbox And Sony Team Up For Special New Freebie
It has been done. Sony (of PlayStationfame) has teamed up to offer Xbox Game Pass subscribers a special freebie.
You probably know this because you are a cool, up-to-the-minute individual. Xbox Game Pass is divided into two tiers. Standard Xbox Game Pass costs PS7.99 per month. Shiner Xbox Game Pass Ultimate costs PS10.99 per month and gives you access to cloud gaming, EA Play and other fun extras.
A Sony-owned service has made its way into Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Subscribers at this higher level can now receive a 75-day free subscription to Crunchyroll, the anime streaming service. You have until February 28th, 2022, to take advantage of this promotion.
Sony bought Crunchyroll earlier this year amid rumours that the company may be looking to sweeten a PlayStation Plus subscription with new incentives.
Although Crunchyroll is not yet available on PlayStation Plus, it has become another reason to subscribe to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate was already a good option for subscribers before Crunchyroll was added.
Although it is not as though Sony has just added the Last Of Us to Xbox, it is still strange to see what Sony-owned service is on a Microsoft console. Moreover, any money Crunchyroll makes via Xbox is money in Sony’s pockets. Right.
