After that, you will be required to pay £1 to start the upgrade.Īfter the £1 has been paid, you should have access to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and everything that comes with it. Once you click to sign up, you’ll be told how the Xbox Live Gold to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate conversion works. Stay on the Microsoft Store and find the page for the £1 Gamepass Ultimate upgrade. Step 3) Activate the £1 Ultimate Game Pass upgrade Once all the time has been redeemed, you can move onto the final step. If you do accidentally lock yourself out, usually waiting a month or two will allow you to apply more time into your account, but you’ll lose some value due to the conversion rate being different. Doing so could stop you redeeming the rest of your purchased time. As an important note, if you are planning on redeeming three 12-month Xbox Live Gold subscriptions, do not agree to recurring billing when prompted. Then, enter the codes for the purchased Xbox Live Gold time. Once on the store, find the ‘redeem’ code page (or alternatively, click here). Next, open the Microsoft Store on your preferred device. Current conversion rates can be found on the official Xbox site here. Alternatively, you can still use Xbox Live Gold to extend a current Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, but doing so outside of the upgrade means the conversion won’t be 1:1.

Otherwise, you may have to create another account. If you're logged in and it says you can sign up to the upgrade, then you shouldn't run into any issues on the final step.

Also factor in any Xbox Live Gold time you may already have, as that will also be converted in this process.

While you could buy 35 months and get your final month free, it will often end up being more expensive than just buying three 12-month subscription cards, so be wary. As an additional note, you will be given a month for free upon starting the £1 Xbox Game Pass Ultimate upgrade, however this won’t let you exceed the 36-month limit. Remember, this method only works up to three years (36-months) maximum, so there’s no need to get any more than that.
