With studio purchases in 2017 and 'XB2' launching holiday 2020 probably, You will likely have Halo Infinite as the big launch title which should hold the core XB fans over for quite a while, maybe even the first year with 2019 BC titles. Then you will probably have one or two GOW sized games drop throughout the year, year after year, mostly to hype Game Pass. They may not be quite GOW level quality, but worthy more intimate story driven titles that MS doesn't typically have on their platform. Let the third parties do most of the gap filling with multi player. There is enough time to make this happen and will be enough to put XB on solid ground and stop the remaining bleeds. They will have to really up their game beyond this as the gen goes on with some new blockbuster IP, if they want to reclaim any lost ground. It's definitely doable but won't be easy as PS isn't likely to let up much if any at all.

I hope that you mean Gears of War, Cuz the xbox has never had anything on the lvl of God Of War and a bunch of tiny indy devs wont be comming anywhere close anytime soon. And If even Ms own big experience studios cant get 1 big game a year, just around 2 small games that dont even review well. Cuphead has been the only one in likee the past 4 years and is no more than a tiny game that wont really move units, on what basis do you claim that they will make 2 GOW sized games year after year? Seing as what happened to platinum games I would say there is evidence to the contrary and the little quality thouse new studios had, will just drop, then somewhat mid next gen they might bring something average. 

Maybe should have used GoW, or wrote it out, but ya, not God of War. That would be them really upping their game like I said they would need to as they get deeper into the gen. It's just an assumption based on the moves they are making. If all these new studios create are really small indy type games, they won't make much of a difference and MS might not as well have bothered. It's hard not to assume MS is actually putting effort behind this and going to try and make it worthwhile. With all the changes going on at XB this gen, I'm sure things didn't exactly run so smoothly at all of the existing studios, so with a more streamlined plan, like in hardware architecture, and less chaos next gen, they should be able to pump out more games. Some bigger, some average, some smaller. Maybe they will, maybe they won't, but the point was that it's possible if MS wants to make it happen. Do they is the question?
