    Xbox Game Pass has now hit 18 million subscribers, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has stated, speaking on its FY21 Q2 earnings call. Microsoft’s Xbox Live gaming network also hits a new milestone, with over 100 million monthly active users (MAUs) across all platforms.

    Microsoft outlined its second-quarter financials on Tuesday, including continued success for its Xbox portfolio, with gaming revenue increasing by 51% year-over-year. High demand for its latest gaming consoles, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, saw hardware revenue almost double with 86% growth. Xbox content and services also surged 40%, attributed to its games and subscriptions, including Xbox Game Pass.
