Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, announced the news during the report's webcast: "All up, Game Pass set a new quarterly record for revenue and grew its PC subscriber base by over 30% as we focus on driving fully paid subscribers."

The growth is an incredible achievement, as the service had largely stalled out in what many considered the plateau for the service.
