Microsoft seems to be throwing in the towel as far as driving people to their storefront is concerned. They’ll be putting out all their games on anything that can run them.

I’d argue this is not really the case, and their strategy has shifted to increasing the price of actually “owning” games to be a premium experience, ie all their new games are now $80, making subscription prices seem more attractive

They walked back the $80 price point, but I definitely agree they’re trying to figure out ways to push people to gamepass. They just keep stepping on rakes

They rolled back the $80 increase when they noticed that people weren’t going to buy Outer Worlds 2 at that price point. They then confirmed that their games will stay at $70 for the foreseeable future (ie. until a bigger player normalized $80 games).
