Would an Xbox subscription make a good present for an xbox player?

Hi

I know nothing about computer games. My other half has an Xbox. Would an Xbox subscription make a good present? Whats included? Is it something you have to pay monthly for? (I cant afford to pay ~£14 per month for the next year!)

Thanks

  • Xbox game pass is good for gamers.
    It gives you access to access to free games each month and on-line gaming.

    it is however about 10.99 a month, to reduce this I do Microsoft rewards and that gets me about 1 pass every 3-4 months but also places like CD Keys do deals where you can buy 3-6 months at good discount so I load up then.

    it’s all personal choice.
