For game pass when very big games like Elder Scrolls 6 are on the service day 1 that will have an impact for sure. Unless Microsoft screws up with game pass or a very good competing service is introduced soon I'll be surprised if the total subscription number across Xbox consoles, PC and mobile devices doesn't get close to 100m or even surpasses that later this decade.

That's the thing though, it's all well and good for Gamepass to have a lot of subscribers across all platforms, but in this context we're talking about how it will affect comparative sales of Xbox and Playstation, and so far it's just no proving itself to be a killer app.

That was what I was meaning with I said it'll have an impact for sure. For when really big games hit the service day 1 I expect it to boost Xbox Series X/S sales though how much it will exactly I'm not sure. If GTA VI was on game pass day 1 I think everyone should be able to agree that would cause a big sales boost but that shouldn't happen so it's to be seen how big the boost will be for big but not GTA level big games.
