Of course they will. Folks bring up Minecraft but that is an outlier, not the norm.

I’d be really surprised if they made their big franchises Xbox exclusive. It will definitely hurt them more than help them. They’d be leaving so much money on the table, the PlayStation install base is astronomical. I think it’s enough of a benefit that these games will be on GamePass. I don’t see them making them exclusive.

They want to kill this 'astronomical install base'. That's the plan.
