For just $79.99 as a Prime Exclusive Deal, you can get a 4K Max Amazon Fire TV Stick, an Xbox Wireless Controller (Astral Purple), and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Or, you can also score this bundle with just the 4K Fire TV Stick, an Xbox Wireless Controller, and 1 Month Game Pass Ultimate for $74.99.</p><p>Normally, buying each of the items in the 4K Max bundle separately would cost you around $142, so you're saving about $62 with the bundle. Those are phenomenal deals to have Xbox's Game Pass library right at your fingertips. Compared to the cost of buying an Xbox console on its own right now, it's starting to looking just that bit more appealing.</p><h2>'No Console Required' Xbox Bundle</h2><p>Microsoft's next big push into cloud streaming massively broadens the potential audience for Xbox games and the Xbox Game Pass subscription. </p><p>All that's needed is a compatible Fire TV stick, a Bluetooth-enabled wireless controller, and an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription to stream Xbox games. This bundle addresses exactly that, providing everything a potential gamer would need to get started.</p><p>An accompanying advertisement for the new streaming initiative recently sparked debate among hardcore Xbox fans. The ad, reminiscent of the Scream movies, features a woman answering the phone to an unnamed man disguising his voice. “You don’t need an Xbox to play Xbox.” the ad declares, with Xbox following it up with a tweet stating, “No console? Don’t be scared."</p><h2>Fire TV Stick: 4K Max vs 4K</h2><p>If you're curious what the difference is between the 4K Max Fire TV Stick and the 4K version, the 4K Max has 16GB of storage, which is double its 4K counterpart. We consider it the best Fire TV Stick overall thanks to its processor, previously mentioned storage, and Wi-Fi 6E support. However, the 4K stick is still a reliable pick for cloud gaming, it just depends on how much storage space you're craving.</p><p>These deals apply to a variety of the ‘No Console Required’ bundles with different controller colors, too. You can have your pick of the Astral Purple controller, Robot White, Pulse Red, Electric Volt, and a few more, which is a really nice variety to look through. And with one month of Game Pass Ultimate included in your purchase, you'll have a vast library of games to get sucked into right away. </p><p>If you want to see what's currently available on Xbox Game Pass, have a look at our Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Catalog. These games will be playable via cloud gaming, which you'll access from the Fire TV Stick Xbox Cloud Gaming app.</p><p>If you're looking for even more Xbox deals, you're in luck! There are already a few that have caught our eye, including an incredible deal on the WD_Black 1TB C50 expansion card. Alongside that, we've also found some excellent video game deals, for those looking to pick up physical releases for their consoles. To see even more deals on our radar, check out our October Prime Day 2024 roundup.</p><p><i>Hannah Hoolihan is a freelance writer who works with the Guides and Commerce teams here at IGN.</i></p></div></body>
