Players on either PC or Xbox One currently have one of the best options for a wide gameplay experience through the Xbox Game Pass, thanks in part to the massive list of games available with the subscription. However, as the service is continuing to expand the library of games on Game Pass, an extra perk may be huge for the system’s multimedia capabilities, especially for anime fans.
This comes as the latest of Xbox Game Pass‘ perks that extend beyond the large game library, specifically as added bonuses for fans subscribed to the Ultimate tier of the service. These perks include a number of discounts and exclusive offers, such as a premium subscription to Discord Nitro and Spotify Premium, as well as free content for games like Gears 5 and Overcooked 2.
The newest perk for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is a two month subscription to Funimation Premium Plus the highest tier of the animation streaming service. Unfortunately, this deal can only be activated for players with new Funimation accounts, so it can’t be used to just add 2 months to an existing subscription. There is also a limited time for players to maximize on the deal, with fans needing to sign up between September 25th and October 24th in order to redeem the free access to the massive anime service.
This isn’t the first time that Funimation has partnered with gaming services, as Sony’s PlayStation Plus offered Premium Plus for two months as well in May and June of this year. Similar to the current Xbox Game Pass perk, there was a limited time to redeem the subscription service, and it was also only available for new account holders. However, the Sony collaboration ended in June, meaning that PS Plus players can’t redeem the free two months, while Xbox players do still have time to jump on the chance to access Funimation’s full catalogue of anime.
Considering not only the huge list of anime available, but also the exclusive access to popular series like My Hero Acadamia, this perk is just one more incentive for Xbox players to pick up Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. The growing subscription service is quickly becoming an even more impressive deal for anyone looking to jump on the newest games on Xbox One and in the future for Xbox Series X. It remains to be seen if Microsoft is still looking to push the multimedia experience of their consoles through Game Pass in the future, but a limited subscription to Funimation may be a decent start.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is available on Mobile, PC, and Xbox One.
