Xbox has just announced the following benefits for existing and new Gamepass Ultimate users:

  • 1 Month free EA access
  • 3 Months free Discord Nitro

If you don't have gamepass already then this can be combined with their current promo for 3 months of Gamepass Ultimate for $1. INSANE value.

https://www.xbox.com/en-AU/xbox-game-pass

To claim these offers on your console, just go to your dashboard and you will see a notification to claim your gift. From there you can join EA access and scan a QR code/enter a link to get your Discord Nitro. Both offers seem to default to auto-renewal, so be sure to turn this off.

For PC Only users I'm still looking for confirmation on how to get the codes. There are reports of some people contacting Xbox support and receiving their codes, and others are saying they were told codes will be messaged/emailed out.

BONUS: EXTRA 2 MONTHS GAME PASS ULTIMATE FREE. I'm not sure if this part was intentional, but once I signed into Discord with my Nitro activated I received a free 3 months of Xbox Game Pass in the Discord gift menu, which converted to 2 months of Game Pass Ultimate when I redeemed it to my account. I was already an existing game pass member.

          I logged in via browser instead of the app, and then it worked, odd, but at least it worked now!

          • OneTrueTatsuya on 15/11/2019 - 18:54

              @OneTrueTatsuya: Just went to https://discordapp.com/ and clicked login from there I think, or "Open in browser" something like that - then there was a little banner with the Xbox Live offer running across the top of the screen

    Thinking of subscribing as a PC user. Worth it?

    • The Value on 25/11/2019 - 19:52

      Check out their PC library and see for yourself.

      I think it's a great deal.

    Info time

    On the Xbox Home screen you will either scroll right or down depending on
    Your dashboard Version
    For the old dashboard scroll right for the new one scroll down
    Either way you want to end up on the game pass screen on the right hand side look for a nitro logo
    Remember it's an advertisement they change so you may need to log in and out or whatever other method will refresh that page.

    Going through this there seems to be a lot of confusion I hope this helps

    As for the extra months of ultimate via nitro that is something discord is running if you go to the Nitro tab in the app when you are a normal user it will state nitro users will receive three months game pass available now until January 6, 2020

  • j-scrizz on 15/11/2019 - 19:00

    Hmm i cant find anywhere to click this "tile" on the xbox PC app or on the website?

  • Xenocaust on 15/11/2019 - 19:11

    Just to note that in Discord it was telling me I would be charged on 15 December instead of 15 February.

    I cancelled now just to be safe.

    • Sammy Boi on 16/11/2019 - 10:26

      If you had scrolled down in the Nitro tab you would have seen account credits.

      • Xenocaust on 16/11/2019 - 13:38

        Fair enough - not worth the risk for a service I'm unlikely to use.

  • rye on 15/11/2019 - 21:06

    I have just signed up for Gold Live for $1 a few days ago.
    No eligible for the Game Pass Ultimate $1 for 3 months deal cause I already had it.

    If I upgrade my Gold Live to Game Pass Ultimate now, does the reaming time on my Gold Live get added to the the 1 month of Game Pass Ultimate?

    • mantra on 15/11/2019 - 23:59

      if you've never used game pass ultimate… yes, worked for me 🙂got the maximum 36 months game pass ultimate

      here, press 'more' to see "Joining Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will upgrade your remaining Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass for Console or Xbox Game Pass for PC time into Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for the same amount of time, up to 36 months. All conversions are final. See xbox.com/gamepass for details."

      • rye on 16/11/2019 - 08:25

        I had game pass ultimate before and I get the same message when I go to upgrade “Joining Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will upgrade your remaining Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass for Console or Xbox Game Pass for PC time into Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for the same amount of time, up to 36 months. All conversions are final. See xbox.com/gamepass for details."

        So I guess I’ll try it and find out lol

        • rye on 16/11/2019 - 10:19

          FYI anyone with live subscription now and already had game pass ultimate before, I was able to upgrade my live subscription to game pass ultimate and it added 30 days.

    just been yelling at an xbox rep that said there is a disclaimer on one page saying the EA Access and Discord Nitro is not available in Australia, and she didn't care if it was advertised on 3 different Australian pages, including the current Australian promotion page, as something you get with the game pass ultimate, what BS, she wouldn't even tell me who I could take it to to escalate it further, that's false advertising

    • Sammy Boi on 16/11/2019 - 10:34

      Then she clearly doesn't know what she's talking about because it literally pops up on the Xbox home screen on the game pass tab.

    Thanks for posting this, extended my ultimate subscription for 2 months free!

    Steps I took (I already had an active Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription)

    • Accessed "claim your ultimate gift now" on my Xbox which is found in the game pass tab.
    • Claimed the Discord Nitro 3 month pass which gives you a QR code, scanned it and activated Nitro via my phone.
    • Then on my computer I went to discordapp.com and logged in which showed a bar across the top to claim 3 months Xbox game pass free. Clicked it and selected PC Game Pass, it displayed a code which I redeemed on my Microsoft account and got 2 months extra on my existing Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
    • Cancelled Nitro Subscription so it doesn't renew (you still have 3 months access after cancelling)

    Hope that helps someone.

    • allabtbrgnz on 15/11/2019 - 23:39

      Did the same +just in case removed my payment method from discord.

    • syousef on 16/11/2019 - 00:08

      No such "claim your ultimate gift now" appearing. Very frustrating.

      • syousef on 16/11/2019 - 09:26

        Finally appeared on both accounts I was claiming this on, so keep trying. More detail in my original reply on page 1.

    • Sammy Boi on 16/11/2019 - 10:43

      I'm pretty sure if you cancel the Nitro you're only going to receive one month as it stated you would receive three months but the next two months are account credits there is still a monthly billing date I noticed when I went to click cancel.

      Did you keep those account credits when you cancelled I guess that's the thing I'm getting at?

      • kuruptz on 17/11/2019 - 03:18

        Yep you still have the 2 month credits after cancelling which will be used to "pay" for the next 2 months on the billing dates.

        I removed my payment details too and you keep the credits.

        Hope that helps :)

        • BargainGhost on 07/12/2019 - 12:58

          This worked, thanks kuruptz

    those who've never used game pass ultimate this technique should apply, worked for me

    emptied bing reward points for 29 months Xbox Live Gold, bought 3 month xbox live gold code via key reseller for $25, now 33 months worth (got suprise month bonus upon redemption)

    joined xbox game pass with $1 offer, upgraded 33 months xbox live gold to 36 months game pass ultimate

    • Khriso on 16/11/2019 - 12:44

      Could you please elaborate on how you got 29 months XBL Gold and where you got 3 months for $25?

  • kehuehue on 16/11/2019 - 01:08

    Is there anyway to get the $1 offer again if youve used it last time?

    Just use a different email? Or will it tie in with you windows account?

  • Vinodra on 16/11/2019 - 01:46

    Thanks, put me back up to 34 months of GP Ultimate.

    Offer was on my dashboard yesterday, but it said i wasn't eligible as I only had Live Gold. Upgraded my subscription today to Game Pass Ultimate now the offer doesn't appear anywhere on my Xbox

    Signed up just for Discord Nitro. Don't have an Xbox. Contacted support, was told I would receive an email to claim it within 1-2 days.

  • EMSilver on 16/11/2019 - 14:08

    Is the EA Access offer a code that you can keep and redeem (before the fine print date in January) or does clicking "join" immediately start the trial?

    Want to wait to activate until I have more time over Christmas, but not sure about leaving the offer sitting on my dashboard (it keeps disappearing and reappearing).

  • B-Moose on 16/11/2019 - 14:22

    @kuruptz instructions worked perfect.

    Already had the max 3yrs XB ultimate membership by combining prev deals, but another 2 months code to use down the track is great. Thanks ozb!

    Should update the deal that it's for NEW users only. Existing members on PC don't get free Nitro or EA pass, it's mentioned in the details.

    https://directly-static.s3.amazonaws.com/attachments/microso…

    Chatted with xbox rep who confirmed the same. New subs only!

    • rye on 16/11/2019 - 21:49

      The title says “Xbox Game Pass Ultimate” which is different to Game Pass for PC. The title is correct.

      • deathjr on 17/11/2019 - 07:41

        I have xbox gamepass ultimate. I'm still not eligible. Read the fine print I linked.

        It's for NEW users only.

          It literally pops up in the game pass tab for current ultimate subscribers.

          I know because I've done it

        • rye on 17/11/2019 - 09:52

          Im an existing Game Pass Ultimate subscriber, was able to sign up to Discord for free and claimed the free Game Pass Ultimate subscription from Discord which gave me and an extra 2 months, through to 13/3/2020.

          Your link is expired btw, so can’t read what your talking about.

          • deathjr on 17/11/2019 - 11:40

            @rye: It literally states it on both xbox and discord promo pages:

            "Note: Only Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers receive a Nitro subscription. At this point in time, there isn't a way for PC only Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers to claim the Nitro gift."

              So how was I able to do it with my existing Gamepass Ultimate subscription then?

              • deathjr on 17/11/2019 - 11:52

                @CartoonPizza: No idea, I don't have the option to redeem it, and checking online seems like a lot of others have the same issue.

                Which is why I went to support and got the same answer.

              @deathjr: thats been added I think since everyone was complaining, but I have this from support;

              Thank you for contacting Microsoft Xbox Support. I am Guissell Z. How are you today? How can I get you back to gaming?

              Me:trying to claim my gamepass ultimate rewards on my PC, don't own an xbox
              looked but can't see on app or the web page, even though its listed on a few pages

              Him:Definitely understandable that you really want to take advantage of the promotion for with Game Pass Ultimate, allow me to review your case and do my best to assist you!

              account stuff/talk deleted

              Him: As I can see here that you definitely are eligible for the promotion
              Allow me to review your case, I will be back within 3-4 min

              Me: thanks :)

              Him: Thank you so much for waiting! I have checked all the information on the account
              As I can see here that we are experiencing an issue in regards to the codes

              Me: ah ok

              Him: As right now we are working to resolve this issue as soon as possible I will like to escalate your case too, since we want to control who is having issues with the codes not being received

              Me: do that please, thank you

              Him: You are welcome!

              So, as you can see support think PC only can get it as well, at least when I spoke to them.

    successfully get the advertisement/icon in dashboard after reboot the xbox one s 10 times, finally get the extra 2 months of Game Pass Ultimate. Do not join ea access yet as I want to wait for the Xmas, but cannot find the advertisement/icon in dashboard again.

  • Bubble Tea on 18/11/2019 - 20:58

    For PC users: Just went on Xbox support, they claim that you can use the Xbox Console Companion app to get the codes as it should appear on the message center in 10 business days? No idea if this is true or not

      Sigh, they're giving me the run around. Saying I wasn't a new subscriber so I'm not eligible. Even though I'd contacted them a few weeks prior and they confirmed I'd be contacted with the code..

    Hey guys, If I have the Game Pass Ultimate already and got the discord deal. but instead of converting to the extra 2 months bonus Ultimate pass, if i choose to stick with the 3 months standard game pass bonus? How will that work with my current 3 months Ultimate Pass subscription? Does the standard game pass 3 months add on after the ultimate expires?

  • Eraze on 03/12/2019 - 12:51

    Signed up for the 3 month deal for $1 a couple weeks ago and just noticed my EA account was gifted a free month of EA Access for PC. Could be by chance perhaps.

  • BargainGhost on 07/12/2019 - 12:24

    Can you redeem your Nitro and EA Access after your Game Pass Ultimate is over?

  • the frost on 22/12/2019 - 14:31

    Has anyone with a PC been able to redeem this yet? I've contacted Xbox Support three times and each time, they've said definitely they'll fix it this time, just wait 24-48 hours but then I wait a week and it's still not done and I contact them again.
