Companies like Sony and MS do deals all the time inside and outside of gaming. MS won't disappear from the gaming industry, they will just remove the hardware requirement. 

Sony will benefit greatly by having Xbox games on PS. They will make more money and that's the bottom line.

If Sony took your logic and completely want to abandon any sort of deal where MS can sell games off PS Platforms, they will be poking a bear a lot bigger than them, and i am referring to outside of gaming. Sony won't act this way because there is too much of a money opportunity to be gained. If Sony says no, then Sony have just given Nintendo and PC a monster advantage because they will most likely end up with all future Xbox and Bestheda games moving forward and Sony wont.

But what sort of GamePass model do you think would work for both MS and Sony?
The third party games that GP offers Day 1 for free is obviously not something Sony would want, since they sell those themselves.
So a GP that only has Microsoft's first party games?

Is that enough for people to subscribe to it monthly? Last year MS released like what, 2 games?
That was obviously an outlier slow year, but even at normal pace and if they end up acquiring ActBliz, there's not going to be enough games every month for an active subsription userbase.
