We all knew it was coming. Game pass gets a price increase and a new more expensive tier for day 1 games.

I honestly can't imagine paying $20/month for it. PC game pass will still get day 1 games at $12/month (was $10 before this) but it's still not great value, and the trend of where this is going is so obvious that I wouldn't want to bother using it anyways.

There aren't even enough good games coming out anymore to justify paying for a subscription lol.

But think about all the blockbusters you'll miss out on - like Starfield, Halo MCC, Gears5 and the fan favorite Redfall!

Also don't forget the value-added extra like EA play where you can play such gems as Mass Effect Andromeda, Anthem, Base version of Sims4 (DLC extra) and less! (EA Sports FC not included)

It's so much worse when you lay it all out like that, haha.
