Season pass for Halo Wars 2 currently marked as free on the Microsoft store. No idea if this is a permanent price or a glitch so might be worth grabbing now.
Edit: Looks like the deal is dead so I've marked it as expired.

Once logged in I lost the "free" button, it just changed to text.
You don't see a "get it now" button under that text?
Thanks, grabbed it. Not sure if they will honour it though
Worked for me. Thanks.
So it is a Windows 10 game.
It says xbox play anywhere so most likely
Edit- it says PC so yep
"paid"
Does a season pass include the base game? Or is this just DLC
Just the DLC usually.
Just the DLC usually.
So cannot play … :p
worked for me theres a "get it now" button under the free text
Cheers OP :)
Can't buy it on the Xbox itself but can if you follow the link and sign-in
browsed to season pass on MS Store app, no buy button and "Halo Wars 2 Season Pass is not currently available"
open link in Chrome, click the buy button, it logs me in, click buy button again, confirmed purchases.
Thank you OP
Got it through chrome browser on my phone. Thanks OP
Cheers worked for Chrome on mob 👍
Got it. Probably dont need it. But free is free.
Got it on phone, reckon it'll be removed soon tho
An AAA game that comes out next year, for free… no chance they honour this
('bought' it anyway, of course)
It's not the base game.
This isn't the actual game.
Edit: beaten
worked here fine. Doubt it will be honoured but
Game hasn't even been released yet so will definitely be revoked, besides this can only be used if you purchase the full game…
Worked here, thanks OP. In the past I have received free games through errors like this, might be a bit different for this though as the game is not yet released.
I likely only buy when it's mega cheap but good to have if it's free. I'm fast becoming a bit OCD when it comes to owning complete versions of games.
For some reason the GET button is greyed out for me on Chrome :( Same thing happened when I tried to get the Borderlands deal from a few months back. Oh well plenty of Amex deals to focus on tomorrow to keep me busy. Still a good deal for the millions its working for. Thanks OP!
i tried it in incognito mode and it was ok :)
I had the same issue. You need to add a payment option to your account (paypal/CC etc). It won't let you "purchase" without it.
thanks fenric will do that next time cheers
It's not out of the question that this is intended to be free to begin with. The phrasing "The Season Pass delivers regular updates that span more than six months" makes me think it'll be free 'content updates' rather than 'DLC'. I can't recall a Halo game with actual DLC, and (though I haven't played a Halo game on release recently), they do a few content-type updates for MP, I believe.
Pretty sure its a glitch as it seems to be one of the drawcards of the Deluxe Edition, which looks to cost $20 more than the standard from EB Games.
I did notice that. Further searching indicates you might be right:
Available as part of the Halo Wars 2: Ultimate Edition, or available separately for $29.99 USD, the Halo Wars 2 Season Pass will offer incredible value for fans, extending long after launch.

Agreed!
"No idea if this is a permanent price or a glitch so might be worth grabbing now."
Considering it's advertised as being part of the Deluxe Edition, and not the base game, I'd guess that it's a glitch.
Get it whilst it lasts!
If Microsoft were smart about it they would honour it then people like me would go and buy the base game
No one else here would - we only get it cos it's free.
When it's at a decent price that is ;)
Firstly:
This is part of Xbox play anywhere, so you can use it on Xbox/PC
Second, this is what companies deserve for planning season passes before the full game is even released. Its a way of saying "Hey, want the rest of the game? Pay another $60".
Enjoy your season passes people :)
Even if you purchase it on PC and intend to play on Xbox One, it says 'only available as a bundle' when you browse to it on the Xbox One store to download it.
got a error its not available :( using the store that is
EDIT
works on the website unsure if it went through though
Anyone else getting an error?
"
Try that again
Something happened on our end. Waiting a bit might help.
"
Page is dead now as well.
Me too, on ie and firefox on mobile and desktop :(
ozbargained?
Yes same.
I dont have the actual game so perhaps that is why. (free is free)
It's been taken down now.
How do we know if we get to keep it?
lel i got free DLC for a game i dont own xD
… and cannot buy! ;-)
I got it but it doesn't show up in my recent purchases
Yeah this has me worried. Oh well. No big loss if they dont honour it.
Same here. It did before when I purchased it, but now that it's expired it has disappeared.
Another Davidjones.
Probs won't honour it, no reason for them to.
As a ozbargainer, get it first and ask later ….
Done.
