If Sony keeps refusing Gamepass on PlayStation, that will only provoke MS into buying more studios. The sooner Sony swallows their pride and accepts Gamepass (with a cut of the subscription for themselves, of course), the sooner Microsoft probably stops buying major studios and focus on more organic growth.
Some of the acquisitions Microsoft has made have been about increasing their first party offerings alone. But I'm convinced a huge part, if not the majority reason they bought Zenimax and Activision/Blizzard was to force Sony to submit to Gamepass.
If Sony continues to be stubborn then I suspect Take-Two, EA, and maybe even Ubisoft will be swallowed up soon by Microsoft (in the next 2 years). Then Sony will be begging MS to let Gamepass on PS devices out of fear that their hardware sales will plummet (which would then cause their first party sales to plummet). |
This reads like a fan fic to me. Incredibly native to think that MS will just stop acquisitions because allows GamePass. |
Before you start insulting someone by calling them naive and their thoughts fan fiction, it's a good practice to fully read, not just scroll read, any written statement before replying.
I said "probably stops buying major studios and focus on more organic growth."
If it still is confusing, let me elaborate further on what was (I thought clearly) implied:
Microsoft will continue to buy mid and smaller studios as they see fit, and will occasionally still buy someone major, but not at the same rate they have been as they will focus more on growing the studios they've already acquired or built.
