Sony, of course, wants PS5 and PS4 owners to be acquiring games through the PlayStation Store and signing up for services like PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now, so its not going to bypass all of that revenue in favour of offering Xbox Game Pass as an alternative. The same holds true of Nintendo, too. But then, you didnt really require this post to inform you that, did you?
The video game market is weird at the minute, so its possibly no surprise that Microsoft bigwig Phil Spencer has actually been asked whether Xbox Game Pass could come to other consoles, like the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Certainly, the response is no, but offered the executives platform agnostic method over the last few years, we can comprehend why some outlets would be eager to barbecue the talkative suit on the topic.
” In places where we have actually brought Xbox, like cellphones like were doing now with Project xCloud and with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on PC, we understand when somebody is playing one of our Xbox games there is an expectation that theyve got their Xbox Live community, they have their Achievements,” he explained. “The other competitive platforms really arent interested in having a complete Xbox experience on their hardware. For us, we want to be where players want to be and thats the course that were on.”
