Ever found yourself pondering just how much cash a PC gamer with a PC Game Pass subscription actually saves? Well, prepare to be amazed, because the savings are pretty impressive. In 2024 alone, the total value of games added to the service was just under a whopping $5,000!
This intriguing statistic comes from Jamie Hore over at PCGamesN. Jamie meticulously tallied up all 137 games introduced to the service in 2024 and calculated their value at the time they were added. The grand total? A cool $4,812.63. And when you consider that a full year of PC Game Pass costs around $143, it’s clear you’re getting a tremendous bang for your buck.
Of course, there are a few things to keep in mind. These savings assume you’re playing every game as soon as it hits the service. Plus, the money-saving magic only happens with the titles you actually play. Personally, Starfield might save me $30, but it’s a game you’d need to pay me a lot more to play!
Nevertheless, this data undeniably highlights Game Pass’s potential for savings. Digging deeper, the article from PCGamesN breaks it down by month. April emerges as a standout with 17 new games, including five day-one releases. December, however, was a bit of a letdown with just six additions, yet even then, the potential savings were still a handsome $214.94.
