Those in Egypt, Moroco, Ukraine and more can access limited-time rewards if they join up soon.

There are a lot of great games on Game Pass, which makes this obviously good news for gamers in those countries who have been eager to try out many of these games for some time now. The only real worry comes from regional pricing, which from time to time has proven to be the bane of many a would-be fan from jumping into an upcoming blockbuster video game.
But, if this is monitored and kept in check, then it's hard to see this as anything but good news. This is a great opportunity to play a range of brilliant indie games too. Or Vampire Survivors!
