Final Fantasy 14 Xbox Version: Double the Subscription, Double the Adventure! 🎮💸
The Xbox edition of Final Fantasy 14 requires a Game Pass subscription in addition to the game's monthly fee for massively multiplayer role-playing.
Final Fantasy 14′ now needs an Xbox Game Pass subscription to play. Get the scoop on GameTopic.
Are you ready for the open beta of Final Fantasy 14 on Xbox? Well, before you dive into the fantasy world of Eorzea, there’s something you should know – Xbox players will need not one, but two subscriptions to play this epic massively multiplayer role-playing game. 😮
The Double Whammy Subscription Surprise! 💣
Square Enix recently dropped the bombshell in a blog post, sneaking the information in between details about the open beta starting on February 21. Unlike PlayStation and PC players who can jump into the game without any additional subscriptions, Xbox players will need an Xbox Game Pass (Core or Ultimate) plan on top of the Final Fantasy 14 monthly subscription. Talk about double-trouble! 🎮💰
“The Free Trial version, including the open beta test, will not require an Xbox Game Pass (Core or Ultimate) plan to play,” clarified Square Enix. “However, the full Xbox Series X and S version will require an Xbox Game Pass (Core or Ultimate) plan to play.” So, if you want the full experience on your Xbox, be prepared to pay up!
Crunching the Numbers: Subscription Cost Breakdown 💸
Let’s take a closer look at the numbers. A 30-day subscription to Final Fantasy 14 costs $14.99, while 90 days will set you back $41.97. If you’re in it for the long haul, the 180-day option costs $77.94. On the other hand, the Xbox Game Pass Core subscription, the cheapest option, will cost you $9.99 per month, $24.99 for three months, or $59.99 for a year.
So, if you’re looking to get the most bang for your buck, committing to the longest subscription of both options sets you back $17.98 per month. However, if you prefer the flexibility of monthly payments, you’ll be shelling out a total of $24.98 each month. It’s definitely something to consider when planning out your gaming budget! 💰💰
