Satya Nadella (CEO of Microsoft): "Today is a step forward on that journey"

Said this in another thread, but this move says volumes about the conversations MS must be having at the absolute highest levels about their future in gaming. Seems the conclusion was, let's go all in.
As has been said before they are taking a different approach to Sony this next gen, but in reality their approach and vision must be going way beyond even this "gen". Crazy and interesting to think about what those conversations are like, but clearly Satya is bought in as well.

It must be pants shittingly frightening to go up against one of the world's richest companies when it decides to go 'all in'.
Weird messaging. Bethesda was already publishing everywhere, so how is this "empowering" for people "wherever they play"?
Game Pass day one on mobile phones in countries like South Korea & India
It's true that Microsoft is going platform agnostic in everything else, so it wouldn't be crazy. Although maybe they're fine with being in everything but a Sony console.
they are on switch too, they have games on PlayStation from prior acquisitions. This is not console wars shit this is MS going back to their main purpose its software.
I thought buying Bungie back would be a big acquisition. It's nothing compared to this. Holy shit MS ain't playing.
Yep, it's in Microsoft best interest to serve any platform where their services reach in.
The physical boxes, like the cheap Xbox Series S, are just trojan horses to kickstart their services dominance.
I guess this is what people felt like when they wanted to know if FF16 is a timed exclusive or not
why would they ignore a large base there as well. ive been seeing MS change their stances with Office on Mac, Android, them unifying development in other spaces this is exactly no different to what they are doing in other divisions and its one of the best profitable plays for them to transform into that, They will still sell consoles but hardware will not dictate their software strategy anymore. Wait until MS releases their Q1 stuff and they talk about this acquisition it will be very clear then.
Seems like they're alot more interested in their Gaming division considering the attempt of buying Warner Bros. and buying Zenimax.
People assuming this involves PlayStation down the road are going to be in for a rude awakening when games like Starfield exclude Sony consoles.
Could be wrong, but outside of agreed upon contracts (deathloop, etc.), I wouldn't expect to see Zenimax games anymore.
