Thanks, I literally just looked this up and saw that is supposedly the case. That's very surprising to me. At least it has that

    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 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).
