Games belonging to Bethesda might also arrive at Sony’s console to improve sales and avoid losing money in the process, especially with big-budget projects.
One of Microsoft’s recent moves was to addCall of Duty: Black Ops 6to Game Pass on launch day. This will be a pivotal moment for the company to see if such aggressive and pro-consumer strategies will improve the numbers for this great service that Xbox offers.
