    I much prefer paying for the subscription this way. Buying the Game Pass subscription 12 months at a time saves me enough money to make it worth the hassle.

    Greatest purchase you can make. You can pay for one year cheaper than you just buying for three months four times

    Core for the win!

    Happy these digital 12 month CORE (formally GOLD) subscription cards are still available online. I prefer to own my games and still collect physical copies. I also don’t play as many games as I used to, unfortunately. Which is why I prefer the CORE membership over Gamepass Ultimate. With CORE you get online play and about 20-25 Gamepass titles available to you.

    I like the core option because i only play one game and do not need the ultimate with all the game options. Although they did raise the price since last year.
