Im Pretty sure big 3rd party AAA Publishers arent very fond of the Gamepass model since it would take away their potential sales of newer titles on Xbox Platforms, like when Take two released RDR2 and GTAV on Gamepass, yet only lasted for 3 months before taking them down
With Sony’s Push for the 70$ Game Pricing for next gen which is beneficial for Publishers (where Microsoft were skeptical, not to mention the Unified Xbox retail releases model alongside the Push for Gamepass) i could see the PS5 receiving the Theater status where most AAA is Timed Exclusive from the Publishers themselves (for 3 to 6 months up to a year, or until the Price drops)
I wont see PC gaming having 70$ Pricing on games any time soon, and with the PS being the preferable SKU sales-wise for Rockstar games i wont be Surprised if GTA VI received this Treatment first being a timed exclusive on PS5 (there’s even rumors about it already)
