Price hikes for services like this are usually not a matter of if, but when. The issue here is the boldness of this move…Typically a service has a long term plan to raise the price in small increments so you feel less inclined to unsub for a couple of bucks.. This is not a couple of bucks.

Microsoft is killing Xbox at an unprecedented rate. I wonder how many fanboys who kept on preaching how incredible game pass is and worshipped Microsoft unquestionably are now confused why they keep on showing how much they don't care about any of their customers.

One of the biggest issues I have with the change other than price is that it is now nearly impossible to tell what games you will get with each tier. They should remove COD and EA Play from all tiers and have a separate package for those if that’s what is causing the increase.
