Microsoft Offers Cross-Platform Season Pass Access for Xbox 360 and Xbox One

Microsoft has announced a great new promotion for gamers looking to make the transfer from Xbox 360 to Xbox One in the near future. Players who purchase Season Pass content for any game on Xbox 360 will also receive the same Season Pass on Xbox One free of charge. This will allow players to easily upgrade their games to the next generation of consoles without having to pay double for the same downloadable content.

In similar news, GameStop is allowing gamers to purchase select Xbox 360 games during the promotional period and trade up to Xbox One versions of the same game when they release later this year for only $9.99 more. The promotion is only available for Power Up Rewards members, and the Xbox 360 game must be traded in before December 31, 2013 to be eligible. The games included in this special promotion are Madden NFL 25, FIFA 14, Battlefield 4, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag and Call of Duty: Ghosts. Read on for more details on Season Pass content for Xbox consoles from the Xbox Wire.

Fans of Season Passes now have another reason to look forward to Xbox One with the Season Pass Guarantee program. With Season Pass Guarantee, you can purchase a Season Pass for a participating Xbox 360 title and automatically receive access to download the equivalent Xbox One Season Pass.* It’s simple.

Some of the biggest publishers, including Activision, Electronic Arts and Ubisoft, are lined up for the Season Pass Guarantee program, offering season pass content you can’t find anywhere else for blockbuster titles in 2013 and 2014. You’ll be able access exclusive season pass content on anticipated titles like “Call of Duty: Ghosts” and “Battlefield 4” on both Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

Season Pass Guarantee makes transitioning from Xbox 360 to Xbox One an easier and smoother process, so you don’t have to worry about which console you’re playing games on or repurchasing your existing add-ons on Xbox One.

Stay tuned as publishers and titles participating in the Season Pass program are announced in the coming months.

*Xbox Live members must own the same game on both Xbox 360 and Xbox One in order to receive Season Pass Guarantee benefits.
