With how much money Microsoft has invested in in their gaming division, they want to bring in as much money as possible. There's a reason why the overarching division is calling Microsoft Gaming. Xbox only being a division within that hierarchy.

Indiana Jones didn't surprise me once we saw how much Disney's licensing fees are. It's so insane it had Sony bundling Spider-Man 2 for free when the game launched with consoles to help ensure the game reached a certain number of sales. But also, Satya Nadella has made it clear that he hates exclusives, and other companies such as Sega and Square Enix are echoing that same sentiment of focusing on multiplatform releases going forward.

So with how much money has been invested, MS is trying to minimize the risk of losing money. And it seems to be working. It's pretty clear that going forward, all first party releases will be timed exclusives.

Will we see PS games on Xbox? Will we see Nintendo games on Steam?

Probably not right away, but if Sony wants to stay in business it's will have to put it's games on more than just it's own console eventually with the high costs and long developing time.  Losing all that money on Concord isn't helping them either.
