So check back every month to see what they're giving away. Every month, Microsoft gives away a few games to Xbox Live Gold subscribers, which you get to keep as long as your subscription is active-but you have to grab them within that redemption period. In addition, Game Pass subscriptions come with Xbox Live Gold included-which means subscribers are privy to the Games with Gold titles. You can read more about Game Pass and EA Play here, and linking your Ubisoft account here. It should prompt you to link your accounts, giving you access to even more. Then, from the Xbox app, find the game you want to play. For Ubisoft games on Game Pass (like Rainbow Six: Extraction), you'll need Ubisoft Connect installed.

For EA games (like the excellent Titanfall 2), that means you'll need the new EA app for desktops (currently in beta) rather than the older Origin client. To do so, you'll need either an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass subscription, as well as the requisite launchers. But some of those games are actually available through partner programs with developers like EA or Ubisoft-and you can link your accounts to expand your library even further. You probably know about Microsoft's first-party games, and other high-profile titles advertised on the platform. Here are some extra features and hidden benefits of Game Pass, and how to make the most of them. But there's even more value there than you might realize.

Microsoft's Game Pass service-whether you play on Xbox or PC-is one of the best deals in gaming today, with hundreds of titles available to you at any time for one monthly price (in supported countries).

Come for Halo, stay for Dead Cells and Sea of Thieves.
