    Only included if you have Ultimate, if you are on base Game Pass for Console/PC you have to buy it.

    That's because the €1 offer is once only.

    You’ll need to pay for a full month of ultimate to convert the rest of your gold

    Sorry for asking again but I'm getting conflicting info online. I have already done the gold to gamepass conversion a year or so ago and it's running out in a couple of days.

    If I get and stack live for the 3 years will I just need to buy a month's worth of gamepass then and it will still convert?

    Also I have nearly 30k xbox redeemable points so wondering if I could use some of that to buy gold...?

    Auto renew should give you a free month I think, just turn it off after everything is converted

    Redeeming 1 month of GPU will convert all of your gold over on a 1:1 ratio, auto renew on will give you an extra month. It'll tell you when your next billing date is which will be a long way down the road, just turn off auto renew before then. Also it's advisable to stack more than 1 year of gold, it may not exist the next time your sub expires.

    Let your GPU expire. Then stack gold. Then redeem 1 month GPU to convert your gold to GPU at 1:1.

    You can use the points to buy GPU subs alright, not seen the option for gold though.

    .

    Does GPU need to expire first for this to work? I've GPU until June 2021 but would like to add another year or 2 before then incase the 'offer' ends!

    Thanks for that, I checked and can get a month of gold for 6,800 so might grab a couple of those.

    As already explained, you let the GPU expire first.

    I like the jackbox trivia/gameshow games. I think there are two of them on gamepass.

    Moving Out is hilarious, up to 4 players, same goes for Total Reliable Delivery Service. Both on Gamespass, or were until very recently anyway.

    Yeah, that'd work, but you're better off loading up on Xbox Live, then applying Game Pass Ultimate. That translates all your Live into Game Pass Ultimate, saving you stacks of money.

    See the first post here for more details.

    Finished Control. Found it to be a solid decent t game. I hsve to admit though I had to lookup the story in the end as I wasn't really sure what was going on. Makes sense now :-D

    Download the game. It should download 2 components, the battle mode and the campaign. Don't delete battle mode as all the game data is in that installation and the campaign tile is just a separate launcher.
