Following massive backlash from users of Xbox Live Gold, Microsoft has backpedaled on its decision to increase the program’s price. Free-to-play games will not require a Gold subscription either.
A few hours ago, Microsoft received massive backlash for increasing the price of its Xbox Live Gold program for new customers. It announced that the price of a one-month subscription is increasing by $1 to $10.99, and price of a three-month membership is increasing by $5 to $29.99, and a six-month membership is now $59.99 – which was previously the cost of its annual membership. Following feedback from users of the service, Microsoft has now backpedaled on the decision.
