I always assumed that Gamepass was a loss leader to encourage people to buy Xbox but maybe I'm wrong? They're absolutely aiming to have Gamepass on as many platforms as possible. They came out and said a few months ago that they've never really made good profit off of the consoles themselves. EDIT: Apparently two years ago they straight up said Game Pass on other consoles was a long term goal, just that they didn't know how likely it was soon. I could definitely see moves like this being made to entice that. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! <cite>StealThisSheen posted [p:961931572] in Microsoft ...
