Today, Xbox is launching Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, allowing consumers to play more than 100 games from the cloud on their Samsung Galaxy Note20 or Galaxy Tab S7. And Samsung is thrilled to have that app now available on the Galaxy Store. When users download the Xbox Game Pass app directly from the Galaxy Store, they can enjoy the complete, full-featured experience with in-app purchase capabilities.
Samsung is also excited to offer the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Bundle for consumers who buy a Galaxy Note20 device (or qualifying Samsung Galaxy device) as well as the accompanying Bluetooth Controller. They will enjoy a free 3-month membership to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (a $14.99/mo value). This offer is available for a limited time.
