The broad availability of the redesigned Microsoft Store for Xbox caps off a busy day for the company. This morning, Microsoft announced it has an agreement in place to buy ZeniMax Media — the owner of Bethesda, id Software and Arkane Studios — for $7.5 billion. When the deal closes sometime in the second half of 2021, a variety of Bethesda games will start making their way to Game Pass on both Xbox and PC. Nestled in that same announcement was also the news that Game Pass now has more than 15 million subscribers, just six months after it had crossed the 10 million milestone.
