Xbox's PC Game Pass brought to five Southeast Asian countries

Superb news! Hope my neighbours enjoy it!

Great news for gamers in those countries, though i have no idea of the popularity of each respective gaming platform in any of them (I'd be curious to know if anyone reading in want to enlighten me).

Thanks to reigon pricing this is the best value Asia has gotten for any Xbox related subscriptions

MagmaticNevada8 said:It's not Xbox-related at all though. Unless I'm mistaken, Xbox isn't even distributed in these 5 countries.

Great news for my fellow gamers!

Amael said:It is though. The movement is to unite gamers, particularly those on M$ platforms.

Regarding Xbox in SE Asia, I have family there and they play - as I did when I was visiting my family in the Philippines, Singapore and Malaysia.

Middle of last year Microsoft made a push to brand correctly for that market. I believe they'll have a team operating out of Singapore. I'd say positive and exciting times ahead for the region.

Boots Orion said:Plenty of gamers in Southeast Asia, but Xbox is not really a thing because apart from Singapore, the console is not sold officially in the region. Buying one in Thailand where I live is costly, PC gaming is much bigger so many will find the game pass offer appealing I'm sure.

Are they making a big deal about it because their cut of the industry on that side of the planet isn't that big?

And Europe expansion...
