My favorite console is starting to feel like home again. Two months since Asha Sharma took over as CEO, Microsoft Gaming as we knew it under Phil Spencer is no more. Xbox is back, as the new branding seen in a recent blogpost tells us, and with it comes promising rumblings.
Last year's extreme Game Pass Ultimate price hike has been rolled back, bringing the monthly charge down from $29.99US to a more reasonable $22.99 at the cost of day-one Call of Duty games. It's a sigh of relief for anyone like me who had no choice but to drop a tier or two after the news first dropped, especially since I don't really care about Call of Duty. But as Sharma does her best to revolutionize Xbox, unpicking some of the Spencer era's less-than-popular moves, is it already too late to turn this ship around?
