''All Bethesda games day one on Gamepass''
Now that would be insane. ;)
Maybe not day one but somewhere after release, to be more realistic. But not after 3 years, like
Fallout 4. That would be great! Especially Bethesda and Microsoft have good relationships since they released first Xbox.
The acquisition are now listed for shareholders.

They weren't a few days ago. This practically makes them complete - minus internal stuff maybe.
Nice one! But without any values, prices of these acquisitions :(
I put this together because I'm a big, huge nerd. Who would you take based on this chart?
Great listing!
Hm… Let me see…
From A Tier they would looking for Mistwalker, Moon Studios, Playdead and StudioMDHR.
Mistwalker because of
Blue Dragon and
Lost Odyssey. Didn't play that. Not my genre of games, but I saw many responds for
Lost Odyssey 2. Probably they are good games.
Moon Studios. They're working with Microsoft from the beginning. They also announced on Twitter a few months ago second new project, next to
Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Hopefully will be on exclusively to Xbox as well.
Playdead. We know how much enough Phil likes their games. They were releases first on Xbox. So why not to become Microsoft Studios member.
StudioMDHR. They should
Cuphead only for Xbox! :D And release it in the box on disc :(
What about AA/AAA Tier?
4A Games would be great addition! But… Rights to
Metro franchise belongs to Deep Silver so…
CD PROJEKT RED? Awesome! But only in dreams :( They should do this before
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. And I'm not sure they would put more than $4 BLN to but them.
CRYTEK? It's possible. And they could use their huge technology which no one wants. And sequel to
Ryse would be great.
FromSoftware? No chance! But they could get into the partnership to bring
Otogi 3.
Frontier? Nope. They are earning lot of money from
Elite Dangerous around all of the platforms. Or if it would like with Minecraft, so ok.
ED for everywhere and new projects only for Microsoft.
Insomniac Games? Would be great! And that's probably only one chance to get
Sunset Overdrive 2 :D Becasue silly Microsoft let them keep the IP :(
Obsidian? Again. Would be nice! But they have some bad experience in the past:
CLICK.
Remedy? This is most obvious team to buy.
But…
Let things happen on their own. We can only speculate and that won't do anything. Let be patient and will see what Microsoft wants to do with their gaming division next.
