Control will be coming to Xbox Game Pass for PC on January 21, a valuable addition to an already considerable lineup.

Game Pass for PC left beta in September of last year, offering over 100 games to players every month via a subscription-based service. It's a wake-up call for pay-to-win mobile gamers, as players can decide to pay for additional content in exchange for success in their team matches. Game Pass for PC really looks to focus on one key aspect of PC gaming: PC-exclusive games.

As the name suggests, gamers who subscribe to Game Pass for PC will have exclusive access to new members for a limited amount of time, at a reduced price. For the first year, the discount amount is 40 percent off Game Pass on iPad and Android tablets.

Game Pass for PC will be in beta until January 27, and players will be able to access to Game Pass for PC using Apple iPads and PCs only.

As we have noted, Game Pass is priced at $4.99, while they appear to have dropped the price for PC. It's not exactly a revelation, considering Game Pass is only available for PC, but the extended beta period is a big deal.

Deerhead Labs is very interested in token sales, or initial coin offerings (ICOs), which are a form of crowdfunding. This means that the company plans on being the first player in blockchain commerce.

Deerhead started the book of its own on token sales, and also ran a marketing campaign specifically around the offering.

The company is aiming for a launch in the second half of 2018.

The e-commerce magazine Scientific American published a new article about the company by Miguel Roth (TokenHive's Director of Operations), which goes into more detail on how the company plans to offer a wide range of consumer goods.

Among the goods listed on the site are toothpaste, clothing, jewellery, cosmetics, and even physical gardening equipment.

They are all "mint in house" goods, which means that the company doesn't have any relationship with a third party. This is interesting, as that often makes for better token sales, even if they are limited in the total number of tokens that an individual can purchase.

Also, there is a tender system for the tokens that can be used for purchase, and these tokens will only be available to markets who make deals with Deerhead to get them in front of customers.

Roth writes:

"These supply structures make sure to maintain token stability and provide a level playing field for both consumers and retailers. The smart contract ensures that tokens do not trade in a way that engenders effectively manipulated price and makes it easy to view all prices in real time."
