GameStop Starts Power Pass, An In-Store Game Rental Service That Runs $60 for Six Months

October 29, 2017Written by Chandler Wood

 

Starting on November 19, GameStop will be starting signups for Power Pass, a new in-store game rental service that will allow people to take home pre-owned games as rentals. Paying $60 up front gets players unlimited rentals for six months, with a few caveats.

 

Power Pass is only available to PowerUp Rewards members, and though there are paid tiers of the PowerUp Rewards Program, even the free signup for a PowerUp Rewards account will grant access to the Power Pass rental service. Once subscribed to Power Pass, members can take home any pre-owned game from a brick and mortar GameStop, swapping out for another whenever they want a new title. At the end of the six month period, members get to keep the last game that they checked out.
