Sony no longer has to pay for whatever deal to get their 30% of sales. M$ essentailly paid 7.75b to keep Sony from paying for the exclusive deal, and still get 30% of whats sold on their platform.
Why would they care if someone else kepts getting what they were getting when they can now get more and own the product.

:mjlol:

If Indiana Jones didn't go to PlayStation then what :jbhmm: Sony gets 0, instead Sony gets what they get and MS gets more than they would have gotten plus they own them.

because they paid 7.75 billion. They're now paying for the development, marketing, etc.

They cared enough to make Starfield exclusive to Xbox (consoles), Redfall, HiFi Rush, etc.

Ironically enough two of those studios also got closed.

Every game won't be exclusive and every game won't be on all systems.


It's literally a case by case basis... Which they said from the jump.

Yet here we are

Hmm, so they're closing studios that were making exclusive games for the Xbox/gamepass.

wonder how they avoid that in the future...
