Competitive service for Game Pass from Sony is inevitable

by time news

In the last month there have been reports that Sony is working on a competitor to the Game Pass. This is done by rebranding and merging its gaming services – PlayStation Now and PlayStation Plus. After rebranding, the company will offer a number of tracks similar to the one offered by Microsoft with Game Pass Ultimate, which unites the variety of subscribers: Xbox Live Gold, Game Pass and Xcloud. Microsoft does not seem to be worried whenPhil Spencer, CEO of Microsoft Gaming, noted that the move is “inevitable”.

Spencer said in an interview with IGN that he was not surprised if such a move was made: “I think this is the right answer, give your needs access to the games they want to play where they want to play and even let them choose the way they want to build the game library. their”.

Spencer also estimates that Sony will continue to bring its big titles to the PC, as it did recently with God Of War and soon with the collection of Uncharted games that have so far been considered the significant exclusive titles the PlayStation console has. He adds that he anticipates that the subscription to Sony’s game library is also expected to reach the PC as the whole industry is moving in the direction of selling services and ongoing appointments, and less sales of individual games or game consoles: “When I discuss with my team we talk about it not as an option but As an inevitable move. ”

It is therefore not surprising that Microsoft continues to promote its cloud services and subscriptions aggressively as only recently it acquired the Activision-Blizzard distributor with a rich game catalog that includes big names like: Overwatch, Diablo, WarCraft and of course Call Of Duty which is regularly at the top of the popular games table On PlayStation consoles and in general.
