THIS IS NOT MICROSOFT! Prices are set by the publishers. Microsoft cannot adjust the prices themselves on digital goods otherwise they will be charged with fraudulent business practices.
Conversion rates are good here because the majority of the games here are published by Microsoft (vast EU holdings and businesses), 505 Games (Italy), and Deep Silver (Germany), so the taxes on the businesses profits aren't being as deeply impacted by EU/UK taking tariffs since the money is staying within the EU/UK.
