Xbox has pulled the trigger on paying for cloud gaming without Game Pass – for Xbox Insiders.
As they revealed on Xbox Newswire, Xbox Insiders who don’t have Game Pass can try out Xbox Cloud Gaming at these rates:
- 10 hours for $ 3.99
- 25 hours for $ 7.99
- 50 hours for $ 11.99
They also provided this elevator pitch:
Cloud playtime packs provide an ad-free cloud gaming experience, including shorter wait times, high-quality streaming, and playtime that remains available until it’s used.
Last July, Xbox started their experiments by offering ad-supported Xbox Cloud Gaming last July, also for Xbox Insiders. They then revealed last month that they would start placing playtime limits for Game Pass subscribers for cloud gaming.
And at the same time, they revealed they would start selling extra playtime if subscribers needed it. Xbox prepared their systems ready for paid playtime at the end of September, and here we are.
