Is Microsoft going to lose $$$ on making Crackdown 3?

So, I made a thread earlier about me wanting to see the ability to fully purchase PS Now games for endless streaming, and I got (as I thought) hammered down by comments of people saying its going to be too expensive and that "its never going to happen, even if Ps+ is made mandatory for it", and that made me think of a newly announced MS exclusive; Crackdown 3.

C3 uses the cloud to get the power of over 20 (or so they say) xbox one's. Now, the only money MS gets to cover up the maintenance cost of servers is whats left of the 60$ people spend on buying the game. So, if that small amount (maybe around 10$) is enough to cover the maintenance cost of servers for over 20 Xbox One per user, wouldnt Sony be able to implement the ability to fully purchase games for endless streaming through their PS Now service if they made PS+ mandatory for it?

Or is MS losing a lot of money by allowing cloud computing for C3?

Thoughts?

You know they really might be losing money.  But why would that stop them?  All XBOX has ever done is lose MS money.
