Upon close, we will offer as many Activision Blizzard games as we can within Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass, both new titles and games from Activision Blizzard's incredible catalog. Microsoft is also aiming to strengthen its Xbox Game Pass video game subscription services with its acquisitions, as evident from comments in a press release written by Spencer after the Activision acquisition was announced. A primary strategy is offering a compelling game library since that unlocks a regular stream of revenue from downloadable content and in-game purchases. That's why console manufacturers such as Sony and Microsoft try to lure as many gamers as possible onto their platforms. Given that the Xbox Series X and the PS5 are priced at roughly $500, the two consoles rely on sales of gaming titles and subscriptions to turn a profit. The Xbox Series X reportedly costs $500 to manufacture, while the bill of materials of a PS5 reportedly stands at $450. Video game manufacturers don't make money from the hardware that they sell. That's a genuine concern, as recent history tells us that the exclusivity of popular gaming titles to the Xbox platform could help Microsoft snatch potential PS5 customers. Now that Microsoft is in the process of acquiring Activision, Sony investors fear that popular titles from the gaming studio won't see the light of the day on the PS5 if they become Xbox exclusives. True to Spencer's words, Bethesda's Elder Scrolls VI and Starfield became Xbox exclusives and are set to give the PS5 a miss. With the addition of the Bethesda creative teams, gamers should know that Xbox consoles, PC, and Game Pass will be the best place to experience new Bethesda games, including some new titles in the future that will be exclusive to Xbox and PC players. These are big problems that can sometimes requires hours, or even days of troubleshooting & re-configuration, to get this app working after a patch. Because the features change so much, documentation is often sketchy & outdated. If you base your services offered by this product, beware, because it seems as if Apple may not do much vetting in business environments - or they have a hard time ensuring all the open source components are compatible with their OS. |
