Xbox Game Pass For PC is a pretty neat subscription service that, ashamedly, has not been rolled out to as many countries compared to, say, Apple Arcade.

Xbox Game Pass for PC is a frustrating mess. There's no denying that Xbox Game Pass is one of the most appealing business models around. It lets subscribers download and play hundreds of games.
