Rain of price increases on everything and for everyone. Now it’s up to Xbox console owners to suffer a little: Phil Spencer announced that too Microsoft would consider adjust prices of its services, including:Xbox Game Pass.
The price increases will also affect the cost of the consoles. But like Phil, you didn’t promise us that – unlike Sony – Microsoft wouldn’t make changes right away Xbox Series X Pricing and Series S? Apparently the promise will soon be broken.
In a recent interview with the WSJ, Phil Spencer stated that Microsoft will not be able to keep the prices of consoles, games and services unchanged forever. Sooner or later Redmond will have to increase prices to deal with higher costs and, of course, the inflation problem that has hit the US and the eurozone.
We have tried to keep the prices of our consoles, games and subscriptions unchanged. I don’t think we will be able to do this forever, there will come a time when we will be forced to raise the price of some of these things. However, we are convinced that it is important to keep prices unchanged at least for the upcoming holidays (Christmas, etc.).
told the No. 1 of Microsoft’s Xbox division.
So it’s true that Xbox console prices aren’t going to go up right away, but this is a temporary relief. In the future, Microsoft will have to adjust its prices, as almost all other companies are already doing.
