No pricing plans for the new console were revealed at a gala event ahead of the opening of the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) videogame industry gathering. Microsoft also announced the launch of a beta version of an Xbox Game Pass that lets people using computers powered by the latest Windows software access a library of more than 100 videogames. "Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is off the charts as a consumer value proposition," said NPD analyst Mat Piscatella. "And, the sheer number and scale of games coming to Xbox Game Pass on Day One is very impressive." "Overall, I thought it a great showing, particularly as we head into next generation consoles in 2020," analyst Piscatella said of the Xbox E3 event.
