The abrupt transfer to exclusivity? In exactly the same vein as the Tomb Raider arrangement?

Definitely not apples-to-apples. The X1 is dead on arrival in Japan, whereas in Tomb Raider's case, it was a direct result of something to put against one of Sony's biggest IPs.

I'll be plainer.

In both cases some sort of incentive will have changed hands. In neither case do we have complete confirmation of what that incentive entails.

One will have required a greater incentivisation than the other.

I'm sure Sony sent the WB Japan guys a mildly expensive bottle of sake or something.
