Spencer responded noting that it has been considered.

"It's something we'd like to do," he said.

"There is Home console feature for one console household[s] but for multiple family members with consoles a family plan would help. Really appreciate the feedback."

Considering how Game Pass has grown to support PC, add Game Streaming, and now includes EA Play, Microsoft has shown a commitment to the platform.
