Xbox Game Pass price by country
Game Pass costs a different amount in every country. Microsoft prices each market by local purchasing power, so the same plan can be far cheaper in one region than another. Below are approximate monthly prices for each tier, with Ultimate converted to USD so you can compare. The catalogue of games is broadly the same worldwide, but availability can vary slightly by country due to licensing.

Pay less than your local price
Buy an Xbox / Game Pass gift card or a region key and pay less than the standard subscription price.
Some store links are affiliate links — if you buy through them we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you.
Is region-switching Game Pass allowed?
Paying a cheaper country's price by changing your Xbox account region with a VPN violates Microsoft's Terms of Service and risks account restrictions; region changes are meant for real relocations. The prices here are for comparison and transparency, not a how-to. To see how much individual games cost to buy across regions, open any game page — each lists its price in every market.
Game Pass price by country FAQ
Why is Xbox Game Pass cheaper in some countries?
Microsoft sets Game Pass prices per market using purchasing-power parity, so countries with lower average incomes (such as Turkey, India or South Africa) pay noticeably less than the US or Western Europe, even for the same plan.
Which country has the cheapest Game Pass?
Turkey is the cheapest tracked region for Game Pass Ultimate at about $9.36 USD per month. Local prices and promotions change often, so confirm the current price on Xbox.com.
Can I subscribe to Game Pass from a cheaper country?
Switching your Xbox account region with a VPN to pay a cheaper country's price is against Microsoft's Terms of Service and can lead to account restrictions. Region changes are intended for genuine relocations only. We list prices for comparison, not as a workaround.
