Insomiac would never partner with MicroSoft in a way that harm/threaten their relationship with SONY. Sunset Overdrive was develop for XBOX because SONY turnt the offer down. SONY had first choice as they would with all Insomiac's work. So the move is pointless if looked at from that perspective.

The thing is that Insomniac has a high output number this gen, and even last gen. And they have a dedicated VR team (teams?).

Having Insomniac focused on PS5 means more traditional games (Ratchet and Spider-man at the very least) but also more VR content will be on the way.

They are pretty much a more reliable Japan Studio (who are my fav btw).

The benefits of owning Insomniac far outweigh them working on some games for Sony .

in conclusion:, lots of games, both traditional and R to look forward to on PS5. 

VR is definitely an aspect worth highlighting. It could be the prevalent factor that lead to this union. With a company as dedicated to VR as Sony, Insomniac as a first party will probably have more access and freedom to experiment, than with limited contract work. Time will tell us more.
