This week on the Game Deflators Podcast the guys discuss Microsoft's recent acquisition of Activision Blizzard, what it could mean for Microsoft's future plans in the console hardware business, and their relationship with Sony and Nintendo.
Cosy city builder Before We Leave is now available on Xbox to purchase and also amazingly via Xbox Game Pass.
I think it just means that people who consume a lot of games are more likely to invest in Game Pass in general. They were already playing 40% more games before Game Pass, now they're still doing it. Not that meaningful of a statistic other than to say people who play a lot of games find a way to pay less to continue to play a lot of games.
Gamepass is really suitable for people who can't really afford games. If gamepass came out when I was a teen I would have been doomed for sure.
Gamers playing more games. Sounds like a good thing to me.
Game Pass has definitely opened up a lot more games for me. Especially the smaller indie titles like Mutant Year Zero, Ruiner, Bloodstained and Dead Cells. I don't think I would have ever found the time to buy and play most of those games.
Hopefully MS can continue this great service and provide a lot more incentive for more developers to jump on board. Gamers and my wallet would thank them.
