Xbox Game Pass Price Drop… But There’s a Catch | Level Down Podcast Ep. 144

🎙️ THIS WEEK ON THE LEVEL DOWN PODCAST… 🎙️ Chondel and Devin grab their mics, press record… and immediately forget what they were supposed to talk about. 🤦‍♂️ Join us for another chaotic episode where we attempt to discuss tech, television, and whatever random thoughts sneak into our brains mid-sentence. Somewhere between the rambling, we actually break down the new DC Clayface trailer (yes, we stayed on topic for a whole 3 minutes — a new record). 💸 MAIN EVENT (eventually…): Xbox Game Pass Price Shake-Up After 45 minutes of side quests, snack debates, and “wait what were we saying?”, we finally get into the big news: • Game Pass Ultimate drops to $22.99/month (your wallet can breathe again) • PC Game Pass drops to $13.99/month • Prices may vary depending on where you live (because of course they do) 🎮 BUT WAIT… THERE’S MORE DRAMA: • New Call of Duty games are NOT coming to Game Pass at launch anymore 😬 • You’ll have to wait about a year (holiday season drop) like it’s a DLC for patience • Current COD titles? Still there. No need to panic uninstall. 🎁 GAME PASS PERKS = FREE STUFF ALERT We also dive into all the goodies being thrown at subscribers: • Free content for Sea of Thieves, Minecraft, PUBG, and more • Warzone packs, Albion Online rewards, and even a FREE comic (yes, really) • Some perks are Ultimate-only… because exclusivity is alive and well 🤔 Expect hot takes, cold takes, and takes that make absolutely no sense. If you like podcasts that stay laser-focused and highly professional… this ain’t that. But if you enjoy laughs, chaos, and two guys trying their best (and failing gloriously), you’re in the right place. 👇 Drop a comment: Would you wait a year for Call of Duty on Game Pass, or is that a dealbreaker? 👍 Like, 💬 Comment, and 🔔 Subscribe for weekly gaming news, reactions, and real conversations from the Level Down Podcast. 🎧 Available on all major podcast platforms.
