By “A benefit for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members”
- by Ben Kerry
At the beginning of October, Microsoft revealed that Epic’s Fortnite Crew subscription would shortly be included in the revamped Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription – and now the Fortnite developer has provided us with an exact date for when this extra service can be utilized.
In a post on its official site, Epic Games disclosed that Fortnite Crew will be accessible to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate users on November 18, 2025. Here’s the complete message shared by the giant game developer:
“From November 18, 2025; Fortnite Crew is incorporated as a benefit for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers. For additional details, please consult Microsoft’s Updates to Xbox Game Pass blogpost.”
Certainly, you won’t need to check that blogpost; we discussed the service’s Fortnite Crew inclusion last month here at Pure Xbox! To summarize, Fortnite Crew subscribers receive every premium battle pass, 1,000 V-Bucks monthly, and a ‘Monthly Crew Pack’ that’s exclusive to subscribers. Typically, this costs $11.99 each month, but will soon be an added benefit for Game Pass Ultimate users.
There has been significant discussion regarding how valuable this addition — and the similar Ubisoft+ Classics — are to the newly priced Xbox Game Pass Ultimate – yet there’s no denying that if you’re a Fortnite enthusiast, this adds considerable value to the service. We’ll link to our complete overview on Fortnite Crew below, along with an analysis of Microsoft’s new Xbox Game Pass tiers as of October 2025.
