Microsoft announced during its Inside Xbox livestream overnight that it's bundling together Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Live Gold into one single package. The result? Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

The service will cost £10.99 and includes the full Xbox Live Gold experience, so you'll also be able to snap up the free Games with Gold every month as part of the subscription. 

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will roll out for a 'limited number' of Xbox Inside members, with a full release expected later this year. You don't have to upgrade if you don't fancy it, either; Microsoft says you can keep your existing Gold/Game Pass membership if you want.

In other news, Microsoft unveiled the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition, a disc-less version of the console that is slated for release next month.
