PC Game Pass is heading to Southeast Asian countries including Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam.
The subscription service offers up a large library of PC titles that can be downloaded and played as part of monthly or annual fees, all managed through a single Xbox app on Windows PC.
Residents in those countries can sign up for the Xbox Insider program which will grant access to said app.
“Bringing PC Game Pass to new countries in Southeast Asia is an important part of how we will achieve this as we strive to reach billions of players,” Microsoft’s Jeremy Hinton told IGN.
There’s no word on when PC Game Pass will be officially released in those regions; Xbox Game Pass itself isn’t available in those countries as yet either.
