Xbox Game Pass Ultimate gets free 30-day free trial of Paramount Plus to watch the Halo TV show

There is a new game called Game Pass Ultimate. The upcoming live-action Paramount Plus adaptation of the sci-fi shooter, which will debut on March 24th, is not the games, but rather the series, which is already available on the streaming service.

To make sure that Game Pass Ultimate subscribers don't miss out on the latest game in the franchise, Microsoft is giving them a 30-day membership to Paramount Plus so that they can watch the show on March 23rd.

The TV show is set in a different continuity than the video games, books, and other content that has come before. The show will give it a chance to tell a slightly different version of the classic Halo story without being beholden to the weight of years of canon that comes before.

The Game Pass Ultimate subscribers will only be able to watch the first five episodes of the nine-episode season, so they will have to pay for another month.

If you're a Game Pass Ultimate subscriber, you're also interested in checking out the new show because it's also a Halo fan.
