They can buy games rights from third party studios to help with gaps .... timed exclusive or exclusive like Sunset Overdrive, Rise of Tomb Raider, Dead rising 3 & 4, etc. Halo, Forza, Gears that's the big three for Microsoft right now. They are building more and more relationship with second Party partners. Games like Recore, State of Decay 2, Quantum Break (remedy studios), Crackdown IP. The gaming market is so saturated right now with all the multi platform games and indie games. So much so that Microsoft doesn't need to add much more to the list. You don't want to be like Nintendo where everyone on the console only buys first party games. Also, watch out what your ask for, Microsoft could just go and buy exclusive right to a future games like Borderlands 3 or next Tomb raider game. |
This really makes no sense when you have Nintendo selling Millions with their games and Sony selling Millions of Uncharted 4 in just 1 week, Exclusive games does not means Timed exclusive because this would not bring nothing more to the Xbox One, this would only delay something that would release for the PS4 and PC at the same day.
The reason why multiplataform games does not sell well on Nintendo's console is because their last consoles don't had Third Party support so this isn't a good reason to state that Exclusives does not matter, and That people would be happy purchasing only Multiplataform tittles.
They can still make games with Inafune but I don't see they making more exclusives with Remedy, the Remedy head stated that they want to go Multiplataform, out of the 3 companies Microsoft is the one who have the most $ to spend with gaming, they need to invest in much more Studios and not on Timed Exclusives and 2.5 Billions with Minecraft, And they need to create something new by their own, Like they are doing with Sea of Thiefs.
