Microsoft’s on-demand games service is one of the most in-demand right now, albeit at a hefty cost

It seems that what was an open secret is being confirmed and by the very Microsoft nothing less. Service Xbox Game Pass This has generated a lot of excitement among platform users and, of course, for the better. What Game Pass is an amazing service No one doubts that, I think. Can you imagine when you were little having had a service like this? wow…crazy…

The point is, all that glitters isn’t gold and this service weighs heavily on the gaming industry, not all could be good… And, as Microsoft itself has said, Xbox Game Pass service cannibalizes game sales. Wait what the hell does that mean?

Xbox Game Pass is cannibalizing game sales

  • Well, basically, when a game comes in Game pass their sales drop considerably
  • Microsoft He contradicts himself since he has always defended that games in Game Pass increase their sales by being at the service
  • The reality is that it’s quite the opposite and Microsoft recently said so before the CMA
  • There CMA is the UK Markets and Competition Authority
  • All this comes as a result of the purchase of ActivisionBlizzard For Microsoft
  • The CMA is, according to Bobby Kotick, the only current obstacle to the realization of the agreement, according to fox business
  • Microsoft in a long letter to the AMC that the media echoed IGN claimed that a % of games dropped in sales after entering Game Pass
  • If you want to read it, I leave it to you. document here but it’s a long nose

And you do you think?

Of course, it is clear that Xbox Game Pass is a sublime service which benefits players in the short term and at a perfectly affordable price.
